Welcome to R2R, love the aquascape thus far! One tip learned the hard way - I can't tell from the picture, but is there enough clearance between the rock and the glass to clean off future algae? From the angle of the picture, you might be able to access it with a scraper, but if you are planning to use a magfloat, it may get stuck, especially once you add some corals.

Welcome to Reef2Reef! Ask anything you need to and we'll be glad to help!

As others have said, it's best to take things slow. That's honestly the best tip, one I wish I listened to. I rushed into things at first and paid the price for it. I'm sure you've got this!


I love the tank scaping!

I tried the cleaner I got and It does hit in a few spots. Thanks for the heads up. This week I am going to use a demosaw and cut some of the coral into PCs that I can stack some. I will move somethings around and make room.
