    I take constructive criticism well.

    Well I tried hard not to make the same old rock wall that is too common. I put a lagoon on each side and a stack in the middle. The pictures don't do it justice. There are a lot of caves and tunnels. I made a lot of room for corals at different heights.

    Over all look.

    Looking good Vegasfish, gonna look even better once its set up and populated

    you seem to have created a lot of good coral placement locations, which is going to make it easy for you when you start adding corals

    Looking good vegas, I think the livestock will appreciate the aquascape more than anybody.MY cleaner shrimp love the caves 'cause they can hang out upside down and check the fish out going through them and the lagoons are cool also. k+

    Nice! It is great to see a tank not designed with the "wall" approach that is highly overated and not beneficial!
    You may want to set the live rock on eggcrate to elevate the rock so that you have less contact between the rock and your substrate to reduce the likelihood of advection and diffusion.
    Best of luck to you!

    Nice. Lots of swim throughs and hid outs. I like the "cove" on the right too.
