This is my first attempt at scaping a penninsula saltwater reef aquarium. Dimensions of the display are 30"x15.75"x15.75"
The goal was to incorporate my freshwater expirience. I feel as if walls, shelves, arches and overhangs are heavily used in reefing, so I tried to limit those as best as I could. Negative space is a big thing right now, so I attempted to try that.
I also tried my best to apply techniques used by IAPLC winner Josh Sim. The GreenAqua channel on youtube has what I believe to be the best tutorial so far on freshwater aquascaping. I have been using the tutorial as my guide.
Keep in mind this is a penninsula so I have to take into consideration 2 sides.
Any feedback is welcome and appreciated.
