Adrock15659 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Wanted to get everyone's opinion on my 25 Lagoon scape. I have 20 lbs. of RealReef brand rock in there. My first scape. I am liking it just would like to hear from the forum. Link to comment
uwdanno Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Looks great to me! Good luck Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I really like it @Adrock15659! Nice and open in the back, great water flow, plenty of sand bed area left. I presume the arch is glued together now? If not, you should, because it's perfect What kind of coral are planning to keep? Link to comment
Adrock15659 Posted February 18, 2017 Author Share Posted February 18, 2017 Glued it together tonight with two little fishes aqua stik epoxy and IC glue. Loving the way it looks. Maintained the same over all look but it was very difficult to get it the same as in the picture. End result was very similar will post photos soon. It should be getting wet this weekend.

Adrock15659 Posted February 18, 2017 Author Share Posted February 18, 2017 Snapped a quick shot before nite nite...... A little different from original but overall I thinks it's still there. Will have it in the main display with sand soon. Link to comment

Coral selection Christopher Marks I haven't quite got there yet.... i have been out of the hobby so long that led bulbs were not even out yet, I never got into the corals 10 years ago I had a FOWLR, but this time I definitely want to dive in just taking it one step at a time. If this forum has taught me anything it's slow and steady wins the race. Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 The final arch turned out great! You definitely have the right mindset for the hobby. Lots of possibilities ahead, you're probably researching all sorts of lighting options now, making plans for the types of coral you hope to keep might help guide you towards the right fixture for your tank.

lakshwadeep Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Arches are awesome, and that rock looks great! My only suggestion is to keep pushing for some asymmetry, which in this case would mean the topmost peak not being in the middle of the tank. Link to comment

Gotcha, got a few rocks that haven't bent been glued onto the scape so I will take that suggestion into consideration. Link to comment
