20 Gal IM nuvo tank, should I stick with this or change it up? If you can add a picture of your scape for inspiration that would be great too. Planning for fish and coral, also have a large shelf I’ve broken into smaller pieces to make some shelves all over the scape let me know your input.

I like the aquascape! You have plenty of room for coral growth and have room for fish to swim around in

I like it, and it’s slightly similar to what I did for a 46 gal below. Nice arches! Besides the height you also might want to check if you have enough room between the rock and glass. I have a hard time scraping algae off where it’s tight. And I have a fighting conch to clean the sand that sometimes gets stuck in the tight spaces.

I think it's a good start but you might need more hidey spots. Also it looks a bit too heavy - I think the base just doesn't look supportive enough. Could make it work with some epoxy or cement though.

What fish and corals do you plan here?

My thought is to work on the left side of the scape, angling the large rock forward a bit as well as the rock to the far left to make it more supportive and close up that side a tad. Then take that small rock in the middle and put that on the sand in front of one of the caves.

Sorry I don't have a picture as an example.
