Hello reefers,

This is my first time scaping in a nano cube tank (450mmL, 350mmD, 385mmH) and would like to get some feedback on my current scape!

Plan is to mostly stock the tank with softies, LPS and meatier corals with 1 or two SPS if my parameters allows.

Appreciate all feedback!

Congratutions on the new adventure! Can you get to the back wall with a scraper or some other tool to clean it? Also, you may consider adding some contrasting height to the rock scape when viewed from the front. Try to imagine what the scape will look like when it is fully populated with mature coral. Good luck!

Thanks! There is about an inch of space at the back wall, but I do plan to let GSP take over the backwall. Do you reckon the rockwork is too close to it?

Great advice on the contrasting height, it does look a little flat now. Will take up your suggestion!
 
In that case I wouldn't worry about the back wall, but GSP can become a nuisance so trim it as needed and aggressively. If you do decide that you want to do maintenance or scrape the back wall then an inch will still let you get a Two Little Fishies scraping tool (or comparable) into that space.
