need advice. just ordered 50 pounds of rock from ReefCleaners...

so i need you guys to help me with my aquascape. ( rock should be here friday)

here is the link to my 150G build thread.. there i have recent pictures of my tank.

tell me how should i make use of this 50 pounds.

i want to keep the 2 island theme. but with more rock of course.

which island should be higher left or right?....which island should have more rock wide wise? etc... how do i make the best use of those good 50 pounds.. ( keep coral in mind too)

( i really do take other people's opinion... so comment comment comment)

 

My own preference would be for the right island to be higher.

 

think so? think it would look better to be a lot higher or somewhat higher?

 

Well I'm kind of obsessive about things being similar, so I wouldn't make the right one too much higher than the left because it would drive me crazy. I also couldn't have two islands because I only like groups of odd numbers. haha I'm crazy!

Have you thought about doing three islands?

 

yea but cant make out how or where to build the 3rd one..

 

They don't have to be in a straight line. You can stagger them. Two islands closer to the back and one closer to the front. Something like that....

I dunno!

 

Wow! 50 pounds is going to be a lot more rock in there.

 

yea i have about 100 pounds already.. so i wanted to add 50 more to be 150G and 150 pounds.

 

only tip i have is that if you angle them backwards you get more coral real estate. i dont have much eye for design...good luck with the project!

 

thanks. yea ill try that and see how it goes.. hey think you can ship more long looking rocks than the round heavy looking ones? ( still want some round ones but a little more long than round) i did add that on the comment section.

cant wait till they arrive;D
