scaping a 40

[tetraodon]

i recived a free 40 breeder tank and trying to decide how to scape it, i require a cave for my dwarf lion, and will be having a mixed reef, SPS, LPS, a few softies. i have a lot of rock and rubble, what do you all think?

I took a few larger pieces with some smaller ones to create some caves, and over hangs. I like this because you have plenty of spots for fish to hide, and it leaves plenty of room for flow. The top right piece is actually 2 pieces.

The 40 breeder scapes I like are all half circles, tallest on one side of the middle, sloping down toward the front corners.

 

This one is not so curved but perfect for mounting corals.
