Final scape critiques?

[luckylepgw]

This has been an interesting build. Some ups and downs and a little heartache as well. Anyway, this is my lil 30"L x 12"W x 19"H island reef.

Front ( living room)

Back ( kitchen)

Thoughts?

Ps... Will be upgrading to a larger tank as soon as i find one. I'm shooting for at least 75 gal, really want 120+...but we shall see

IMO, if you could pull out the white rock in the front view, right side ‘cave’, it would open up a nice swim thru area

Very symmetrical.

I was thinking about that, but also thinking the back side "ledge" of that could hold some coral

Trust me... when you run out of room for coral, you’ll still be able to rearrange something to make it work!

Hopefully by then ill have another 100 gal to fill [emoji15][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Very symmetrical.

Thanks, i felt the same, but with just enough asymmetry to make it interesting.

I hope the same for you ... every upgrade should be at least 100 gallons more!

Well not exactly a 100 gallon upgrade, but a 90 gal bowfront i got for $100 will work for awhile...

This is temporary scape till i get more rock later this week...

 

[luckylepgw]

Planned

The orange and yellow circles to roughly green spots and build up grey areas with new rock...

 

[luckylepgw]

Went ahead and moved my tower over

Will probably tweak it once I get more rock, but this will work till then...
