Scape advise

randriese · 2026-09-27T13:04:45-0400

Yesterday we picked up a few boxes of AF dryrock. Obviously we bought too much (two boxes still closed, two used fully and a few shelves are going to be used as small rubble to fill some gaps and create extra stability.

Hope to hear some advice on our first attempt. Two more weeks until the tank itself gets here so we got time to improve.

Tank will be 60cm high so I made sure that highest point of the scape is 40cm

It's a nice structure with a lot of caves and over hangs. I didn't know AF sold rock. I like the view from the back.

Forgot to add that it will be a peninsula tank, so will be viewable from (almost) all angles :) the blocked side is on the right

Will you have corals in there ? How much depth do you have ? If the cardboard is your tanks depth it seems to be pretty close to the Glass, but maybe that is just the perspective.

There will be corals indeed. The tank dimensions are 184cm x 65cm x 60cm and the scape dimensions are 150cm x 45cm x 40cm
