Here is my first attempt at my scape in the new tank. I like it but feel I am wasting space in the corners and back. I'd rather not put the rock against the back wall but also want to increase swimming space. Ideas/suggestions??
I like the scape but you don't need that much rock. The 1lb per gallon rule is a little out dated. It's more about surface area. I have about 18-20lbs in my 30. I would keep it around 15-20 just for aesthetics as well as providing enough surface area for bacteria.
