kimberbee Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I really like how those rock are set up with them jutting out like that. Are there corals you can (or plan to) put on the underside or in the shadows? 1 Quote Link to comment
debbeach13 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 That aqua scape really rocks! 1 Quote Link to comment
DaveFason Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Very cool stuff Shaun. Only thinking out loud but do you think the rock work is to tall for the shallow tank? Focusing on SPS will be hard with the short space between the top of rock and water line. Again great stuff as normal. -Dave 1 Quote Link to comment

Thanks, I didn't plan on having any under there specifically but I'd dig to look into that - thanks for the input. 1 hour ago, debbeach13 said: That aqua scape really rocks!

My plan was to have tabling acros on the tops of the overhangs and growing out creating even more of a top. I'll add Stags and other branching corals lower in the water line, a large part of the tank is open (I'll do some better pictures sometime) so I'll likely add small rocks to grow colonies from the sand in a few places. 20 minutes ago, Berlibee said: He's probably aiming for tabling acros.

teenyreef Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Yay, at long last! How ironic that your is the first thread I've checked in to in about a month, and you just got the tank wet I love the bommie look, and I'm really looking forward to how you work the tabling sps in with the rocks. Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment

I currently run it like this: B+ Actinic B+ P+ B+ B+ Actinic B+ I'll likely switch out one (or maybe 2) B+ for a C+ in the coming weeks but I forgot to add some when I ordered the light. 1 Quote Link to comment
