Unordinary but bad problem

actually screw the cove that looks good! just a few rocks and a big and small island; awesome IMO and the pics arent bad either

 

the only thing i dont get is how you put ur rock like that. It looks like one really good rock formation made out of only 1 rock so how'd you do that?

 

O you just got to turn the rocks till they "lock" into place and it looks like one rock usually you have to mess with the same rock and turn it every way possable before it fits. but i did nothing special, the big island is made up of 4 medium sized rock while the small one is just 2 smaller pieces, btw you want the one in the back to slope downward like a hill kinda so you can see all the corals, if u no what i mean.

 

i see what you mean; bout to try it right now. thanks so much man!

 

I would recommend you taking all your coral out and putting them in a 5g bucket or somthing and put a heater and the light over them and then take the rock out, and put them on a towel or somthing and mess with the shapes on the towel its much easier imo and when u find the right one just place it in the tank piece bye piece, or even epoxy them together if u got some epoxy.

 

+1 about the coral. This is what my 'scape was before I took my tank down. When I have it back up again, hopefully it will look even better with more rock.







I try to make it as natural looking as possible. I like the big island on the right. My left island...personally, I think it looks like crap. We'll work on that. Above was just 13 lb. I recently got a 6lb rock with plans to get about 15 lb more.

 

seano your right island looks rlly nice i like it a lot.

 

i agree it looks cool. well i just finished up the aquascape but im gonna post pics when the sand falls to the tank floor again so that everything clears out. I actually like it; its not as bad as i thought

 

is it a 2 island set up or what?

 

yep, 2 island setup. still waiting for sand to fall
