alright so i am totally disappointed about the rocks. They look like crap, although i might just be overthinking things. I didn't know if i wanted rock colums everywhere throughout the tank, or just one big one in the middle. So i split the two and tried to incorporate both ideas. Did i do it?

Need some honest opinions here, do you like the aquascaping? or could it be better? COME ON MFK!

That second to last pic looks pretty good as far as the rocks go.

I guess it comes down to just making sure the fish have plenty of room to swim, and the eel has a few good hiding places.

last 3 pics are current.

NO leaks and clear :D.

I still don't know if i am happy with the rock work yet. I seeded a bunch of coraline algae, so maybe the problem with the rocks is the random bleached live rock i have in there. Maybe once its all purple it will be amazing, until then i am not completely happy with it.




Oh and conner yes i agree with you. I mostly set it up for the eel in mind. He has 10 inches of room behind the rocks and they cover the tops. Its almost like and inside shelf behind those rocks, then the holes where he can come out from behind. You wouldn't believe how much room is behind those rocks specificly for the eel. Im tired of him decorating so i made the biggest back tunnel for him and tried to get its stability sound

any suggestions for moving rocks though i will gladly give a try. Anyone find any out of place rocks or things that you think should be switched around.

360 gallons 12x2x2 over an inch thick.

I have an early link to my fish. Massive predators is what its called if you want to pop it in a search. My stock is already planned, though i might be adding some more fish. I want to do a school of damsel like 40 of them. Add some crazy movement to the tank.:D

I have been thinking about adding a small shark as well..... i know its not a good idea, but i really want one lol. He would be trigger food though :mad:
