I am looking for alittle insight on Aquascaping. I feel like my tank is alittle cramped. It is only a couple of months old and today I have set up another tank alittle 4 gallon so suggestions on what to move into it that would be great.

i love the kessil light!!!! but as far as suggenstions I dont see your tank as being cramped. You should take a look at my 14g biocube. It has about 40+lbs of live rock. Also has a pair of maroon clowns with their nem. I also have 1 fire shrimp 1 pistol shrimp 1 pepermint shrimp, and 1 YWG. All those live happily in their 14g cube. If anything mine is super cramped.

That tank looks awesome. I see what you mean about being cramped but looks damn good. I guess I just want to clean up alittle around the edges. Also, if you would move anything in to a 4g pico what whould you frag and put in?

I like rocks....so, here's a shot of my 28g jbj...

The following pic is an early shot of the edge/corner. So, from a diagonal, it looks larger. Luckily, I put it in the corner, and this is what I see most of the time.

I would add more rocks, because rocks are great.

for more ideas, I would check out tektite's tank. She's the macroalgae queen, and her tank is awesome. Adding a few macro algae here and there can make your tank pop--provided that your fish doesn't eat and mess with them.

All I can say is WOW her tank is Amazing. I wouldnt mind adding some macros probably help filter alittle as well. I had some chaeto(left over from another aquarium) in there for awhile until it got hung up in my powerhead. I decided that it was kind of a pain in the butt. Anywho if i could get some cool macros and ancor it down that would be awesome. Also, where can I get Macros All About Fish doesnt really carry any and Fish Gallery is kinda short on stock now.

Here is mine. I personally wanted to have a cave in the middle and plenty of different "heights" of rock for coral placement based on light intensity requirement. I am happy with the result.
