Very nice rockscape!

I like how all the rocks are pretty much perfect and as a whole created a perfect scape!

I would put another piece of rock on the right side of the right overflow.... to kinda add a visual point which should help distract from the black overflow.

Maybe a smaller supporting piece on the bottom right against the rock structure too.

Overall I think it turned out great for a "fly by" set up.

rock scape

EK I was thinking that same thing about the over flow on the right. Although I was thinking about glueing a fast growing coral their. but it looks like my pulsing zena likes it and is going to take over in no time. It has attached and split several times in just a week. Id say it has doubled its size every week

A few new pictures. Please tell us what you think.

Cloudy new FTS. I am adding a thin layer of course sand over the top of the suger sand to get the sand storm down.

Have yet to put it in. Waiting to get the time to do so. I sure hope it does though. I'm getting tired of looking at a cloudy tank. I cant even turn up my MP40 much past half way because it blows sand everywhere when I do.

Thank you very much. The fish is very pretty and has a great personality. I believe you are refering to the tricolor just below the sohal in the last picture. That started as a pretty small frag bought from Q at t&t about 8 months ago, cant wait for it to be a large colony some day.

he is a very friendly fish as well. there was some agression from the yellow when the sohal was first added but after the first day everything has been fine. this tank is only 48" but the layout of the rocks leaves it pretty open. its hard to tell from the pictures but there is a lot of room under the rocks as well. they are stacked to provide as much swimming room as possible. i think 60" should be fine as long as the rocks arent stacked to high and deep and there is no aggression.

My rocks are not high at all, I would say mid height and def have room in the front and back.

The purple was my last fish added so I am not too sure how he would behave to new additions.

Thanks for the info!
