Thanks! To make it a bit more like a pyramid shape?If you've got an spare rock maybe add a tiny bit more into the centre of the left tower and I think it's looking awesome !
6 more days till the tank gets here... 5 more designs or stop here?

I think top to bottom, move the ones you can and cement, wait for it to cure fully then lift then next layer and so on!Next question - do I cement it top to bottom or vice-versa? Seems easier to go top-to-bottom, as I can lift off one rock, cement it, place it back, wait, then take the bunch off, etc... Right?
I don't even have a tank yet So, I'll cement this all out of the tank (probably in 2-3 large bits) and then put it in.If you have an internal overflow tape that out also. I have two in my tank and wish I got a tank with out them. They take up a lot of room.
Yep, otherwise I'm never getting structure back together again, as the last posts have proved Thanks!I think top to bottom, move the ones you can and cement, wait for it to cure fully then lift then next layer and so on!
Looks good, can you remove the joining bit to create too islands to see what it would look like?Stop the presses - breaking news, lol
Moved a couple of rocks as JoshO suggested and my wife signed off on the layout - I can't believe it ;Nailbiting
The bridge is something my wife is set on, so... no she wants it there and I have to give in there. I think it may work well in the future with some small colonies (of something that I don't know yet about) or just for shrimp to hang out on and have a beer or two. Basically the concept is to have an interconnected landscape. But thanks for your input - always happy to hear different ideas!Looks good, can you remove the joining bit to create too islands to see what it would look like?
May as well try one more scape while you have time.
I'd possibly cement it in a few larger chunks and construct them in the tank, rather than try and go for one big structure, if you ever need to disassemble, move things around etc it gives more flexibility, plus there's less chance of it coming apart when you move it and possibly cracking the glass!I don't even have a tank yet So, I'll cement this all out of the tank (probably in 2-3 large bits) and then put it in.

Thank you - that's a great idea! It does make sense and will definitely make it easier to at least put it in. I was thinking of just having the bridge on its own, but having 5 smaller structures is easier to maintain in the long run.I'd possibly cement it in a few larger chunks and construct them in the tank, rather than try and go for one big structure, if you ever need to disassemble, move things around etc it gives more flexibility, plus there's less chance of it coming apart when you move it and possibly cracking the glass!
The last thing you want is to drop or have one of the larger structures break apart as you are moving them into the tank so hopefully it'll help minimise that risk!Thank you - that's a great idea!

Not yet - it was late last night, so I am going to cement it today... why?is it cemented yet?
Ah, got it. Yes, good advice!wait till you have the tank.
make sure it fits.
if the tank has a center brace that could create problems getting it in the tank.
put it in the tank and than sit where you'll be viewing it to see how it looks.
get the wife's approval.
