Does this scape look adequate? I have a aquatop Recife.

Hey guys! I’m new to this journey and have done countless hours of research and video watching. Getting everything setup and taking my time to make sure it’s all right. I finished my aqua scape tonight and it’s 20 inches lomg(facing you) . 11 inches tall and 14 inches width (front to back) does it look okay? Should I do anything else? I’m planning to add a pair of clowns. Pistol shrimp w/ goby down the line some anemones

I also am wondering if it’ll hold when I go to put it in tank. I used seachem 17x glue and the purple color epoxy stuff together. Gonna let it cure for 24hrs and see how it goes.
 
I think it looks great! It’ll look even better when it’s wet! I like the structure and there’s a nice small cave on the left side the goby may like. Off to a great start.

Let it cure the full 24 hr before lifting/moving for good measure. Maybe start a build thread so we can all follow along!

Thank you! I’m super excited to see it once it’s all wet! Waiting on my filters for my osmosis system to get here so I can start making water !

Reef cement is the best to join rocks together, and if you really want it to last forever you can drill holes in the rocks to insert acrylic rods that act like rebarb
 
Your Goby will love to tunnel underneath your rocks. So, I recommend putting the rock directly on the glass and then filling in the sand. That will allow him to tunnel with no fear of rocks shifting.
