Liverock aquascape question

[BryGuy903]

Setting up a 14gal biocube. I’ve been out of the hobby for quite a while and looking forward to using LEDs
Question today: is the current structure going to be too dark in the center for softies, should I move things around to allow light to touch more of the rock.
(Forgive the cloudy water, churned up sand while I was adjusting)
For reference, top of rock is about 8 inches from surface.

Thanks everyone.

That a really cool looking aquascape with live rock. It may be a challenge to get good coverage with one light. You could get a little 12” AI blade grow to supplement that area. Angle it straight into the cave and tune the output of both lights to work together.

Cool idea. Thanks!

That pic makes it look like a bowfront!
I agree with a suplemental light on the top front of the tank

The biocubes are mildly bowfront. It’s a nice size for home office, I can view from more angles without the corner/frame.

I turned the arched piece in center over. My 13 yr old offered the suggestion.
More lit surface area for corals.
Thoughts?

Would the Additional lighting still helpful?

I like the new aquascape better! Definitely get more room for coral!

It looks like the rock is too close to the glass on the sides. You won't be able to keep the glass clean there. I know first hand.

I’m able to get the magnet around everything. Is there anything I’d need to do that would require more space?
