I got a vertical 20gal tank as a newbie and wanted to do a wall tank. Considering I need to leave some space above for the fish to swim I didn't go straight to the top.
Setup: The bottom two rocks are 20lbs of purple live rock and then I added another 25lbs of purple (non live). The purple live rock on the bottom is more red and I'm hoping the top rock will get the same color over time. My biggest issue is that the middle big rock stayed a really dark purple but the ones on top got brighter in the tank. They still look the same color out of the tank. I wish I wen't full live to keep a uniform color. Still need to add more putty and a darker putty over the light colored pieces.
I'm still a bit on the fence on how it looks. Any advice to make it look better?
P.S. No fish yet, I'm waiting another week for the bacteria to grow and for the tank to cycle a bit more. Will be adding clown over the weekend as starter.
