Hello. I just want to show you the aquascape I designed for my lifegard aquatics 3.8 peninsula build. It took me about 2 hours to complete the entire aquascape. I used small penny sized rocks for the branches and a golf ball sized rock for the base. For bonding the rocks, I used seachem cyanoacrylate glue and sand. First, I added a small amount of glue to the penny sized rock and attached it to the base. Then, I added a pinch of sand to the bond, and held for a few seconds, to ensure a good bond between the rocks. After, I sprayed water with a pipette on the rocks to get a fast bond. Lastly, I used rocks to hold up the piece, while I worked on other branches. I repeated this process until I achieved the look I wanted. I've aquascaped many tanks, but this was my first negative space aquascape. So far, this was one of the easiest, since the rocks were small and didn't need much support other than the glue and sand. There aren't going to be any fish in the tank, so I figured it would be fine to create an aquascape without many hiding spots. What are your thoughts on this aquascape and method?
