well basically all I did was put the bigger pieces on the bottom and work up from there. Its not the best looking but I added a lot after I got my clown and she is a brat and doesn't like me in her tank!  Hope this helps a little maybe as a guide of what not to do.  | |

Hard to do really exotic landscaping unless you have a much larger tank.
Bigger stuff on bottom, smaller stacked on top.
Unless you have PVC support racks or glue them, is about best you can do.
I do find rearranging corals, and particular rocks when I determine needed quite satisfying also.
Also, often get unwanted help from my Coris Wrasse now and then.  _________ AG "125," AquaC EV 180, 30 gal sump, "SCWD", 80 lbs LR, CoralSeaLife "Moonlite" Hood, PFO 250W HQI Mini-Pendant (SPS HQI 14000k bulb)
