Starting my waterbox 100.3 build very soon trying to get the aquascape all layed out so I can get the pukani curing before I get the tank. This is what I have come up with so far. Wanting some opinions or any suggestins will be greatly appreciated, I always hate aquascaping I never like what I come up with. Will be a mixed reef sps up top to middle and lps and all that lower parts.

Pretty awesome rock work!

What did you use to construct it?

Looks like it is going to be an awesome build.

Welcome to R2R!
The rock is all pukani, I used a hacksaw, chisel, hammer, dremel to get everything to fit together nicely. I have the e marco 400 mortar that will be holding all the right structure together. The rock on the left side was one huge piece of pukani I dremeled and chiseled it away to get the shape and archway under it and the cave that runs through it.
Yeah im pretty excited about this build will be a waterbox 100.3 tank and stand, starting with 2 radion xr15 pro gen 4 add a 3rd later if needed. 2 maxspect gyre 230, vectra m1 return pump, and a nyos 120 skimmer. Should be pretty awesome. Be a couple months still before I get everything together have some of the stuff already. planning to get this rock cured and cycled for a while so im not waiting on it when I get everything ready.

I have the right structure all mortared together now except the very top part. Played around with a few different rocks up top and now I have another option I like, would like some input on which you guys like better I'm 50/50 I like both.

I would say go option 1 if it isn't too late. It looks more natural to me.
