Hi all, setting up my first reef, a 4 foot peninsula. There’s not one dominant viewing side, all 3 sides are equally important. Wanted a sloping look from the end on view. Planning on having some LPS on the sand bed on the long sides. Trying to keep that in mind and create areas with lower flow. I like the appearance of the branch rock, but it has been difficult to incorporate. I am envisioning a torch garden on one of the longer branches at the end of the peninsula. Anyways, any thoughts for this first reef of mine? Thanks!

First off I'm just a dude, so tifwiw. Secondly I looooove this scape!

I think the only thing I would change is getting rid of this rock.

I think it would "lighten up" that area and improve the visual flow. Possibly put one of the smaller rocks there if you don't want it that open.

Still, I love what you've got here!

Fantastic!!, I'm currently in the process of my aquascape for my 4ft peninsula. Excellent scape with those branches. I can't wait to see what it looks like grown in.

Very nice! Plenty of circular swimming space . Not too tall so there is plenty of room for growth.
