This is going in a 36 gal bowfront community tank, eventually reef. Type of corals are not determined yet. I have 2 small foundation pieces that werent used in this mock up yet, but will be placed under the back left structure, and right structure the arch comes to, for a little more height. Nothing is glued, and currently disassembled, but in a way i can re create it(slept on the idea first)

Gaps will be joined better when doing final assembly, it all about the flow and depth atm.

Stocking plans are light, they center on a goby/shrimp pair with 1 firefish, 1 blenny, and 2 to 3 green reef chromis, various snails, and maybe a crab.

I have a template of tank foot print i will build the final piece on as well.

I have 1 small extra piece and one large extra piece ( relative tp tank size) to break up still.

Your aqua scape looks really good love the swim through, just note that its really hard to get coral to grow on vertical scape areas, maybe try and add a small ledge or something depedning on your coral choice

Water is almost filled at this point. Got extra rubble and a couple bigger pieces for later, or w/e.
