irishtexan Posted June 28, 2007 No not bare, just boring. You need to break up the rock so you can have a better aquascape. Quote Link to comment

travisurfer Posted June 28, 2007 yeah, i would break the rock up. wrap it in an old towel and smash it on the street or concrete. Quote Link to comment
ReeFur Posted June 28, 2007 buy some better rock...looks like a wasteland..no offense... Quote Link to comment
Beijingtank Posted June 28, 2007 Break up the rocks? Well, the thing is, this is my first SW. I'm not sure if it'll go well so I didn't spend any time aquascaping. The other thing is I couldn't find any actual live rock.the LFS just has base rock for sale. And they don't even supply live sand.They use crushed coral(which u guys say will raise pH). I just thought I'd start real simple but as things go well, I'll move things about and try to find live sand(although i'm not suppose to add sand after the cylce,right?) Anyway, checked the water for NO2 and added a yellow tale damsel. Quote Link to comment
Beijingtank Posted June 28, 2007 Well, thanks for the comments. Better than no comments. At least i'll know what to do next. I know you're gonna bash me with this one too, but I'm using a canister filter filled with crushed live rock.And yes, I can't even find any chaeto either. Quote Link to comment
Beijingtank Posted July 6, 2007 Thanks Mr.Feesh. Got myself a coral and a clown. The damsel did bother the clown for the first hour. But later, they just got along fine. Quote Link to comment
MR.FEESH Posted July 22, 2007 I was being phosecious. Seriously- look around in this gallery for some new ideas. Quote Link to comment
nappa9 Posted July 24, 2007 Some of you guys can be jerks you should give him support and ideas not just criticism. I think you have a good start try to read some posts in beginner area of the forums and maybe check out some online reef stores if your LFS is that lacking. Keep it up Quote Link to comment
illuminano Posted August 10, 2007 Ok so everyone on this forum loves to smash tanks...? I think the tank itself looks nice, but spend some time looking around the gallery to see what others have done with there aquascaping. it definately needs work, but at least you know it's up and running. Less symetry, more coral! Quote Link to comment

gotboost15psi Posted July 9, 2008 would look 10x better if that rock on top was removed. Looks like your 4 year old son found a rock in the backyard and just placed it in the tank. Quote Link to comment
