Tamberav Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Are the bearing replacement kits also on sale? Duno! Link to comment
llama roadkill Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 What do you guys think of my proposed scape? I didn't used the drilled one because it was wet. I would've wanted another "island" piece but I like these. Link to comment
devilsadvocate Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 needs more rock. Link to comment
llama roadkill Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 needs more rock. I know. I should have requested more "island" pieces. Link to comment
devilsadvocate Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 thats all the rock you got? Link to comment
RC1313 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 If that's all the rock you have grab some more! And don't be afraid of a hammer and a chisel. Take your time and be really happy with it so you aren't constantly moving it with livestock (me) caves and arches make for a nice scape IMO. It's honestly up to you! Link to comment
llama roadkill Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 thats all the rock you got? Ya, 50 lbs. Link to comment
devilsadvocate Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 those two pieces cant possibly be 50 pounds. Link to comment
Chew_Magna Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Woah that's 50lbs? You got jipped. Bad. Link to comment
RC1313 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Ya, 50 lbs. Uh who did you buy that from?? Link to comment
llama roadkill Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 those two pieces cant possibly be 50 pounds. Uh who did you buy that from?? No. The rest are plates. I don't really like them. Should have asked John at ReefCleaners to give me more pieces like that. Link to comment
devilsadvocate Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 plates are op. give em a try. Link to comment
Tochtli Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 There're a lot of cool things you can use the plates for, but it might not be as clean and crisp as you originally wanted. Link to comment
Sunar357 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 LOL! Make two pillars and plates connecting them like a giant Japanese gate. Like so but under water. Great idea, Fred! Thanks! Link to comment
1.0reef Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 If you can't use the plates well, use a hammer and chisel on them Link to comment

Sunar357 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 WTF they are real gates in Japan and rocks make just about any formation you can think of in the ocean. Giant flat surfaces are awesome for corals. Link to comment

Sunar357 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Then stick with the "oh look two rocks fell into a tank" look you have goin on there. Link to comment
devilsadvocate Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I know but I like minimalist natural looking landscapes. minimalism in a reef isnt natural bud. Link to comment
llama roadkill Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 minimalism in a reef isnt natural bud. True. Link to comment
Tamberav Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Flat rocks can look natural and it gives you SO MUCH ROOM to place corals on. Here you go! Once it it covered in coral you won't even know its flat but you'll have so much coral landscape. It actually looks really nice too. Link to comment
Tamberav Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Oh and finding the right aquascape takes like... days of fiddling sometimes. It's a pita Link to comment
1.0reef Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 If you can't do a very well elevated flat rock scape put them at unusual angles on the sand, great for pics, zoas, etc Link to comment
llama roadkill Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 So you guys don't like that one I posted? Just kidding! If I end up having extra rock I may do a contest... Link to comment
