Aquascaping!

[shrimpy brains]

Ok, I tore down my 125g and am setting up a 29g cube. It will be a reef tank. A few softies, some LPS and maybe a couple of non-photos.

I am not very good at aquascaping and am looking for a little inspiration.

Got any pics of some well designed set ups? Please, post 'em up!

Thanks, Amy

Google "bonsai reef" and you get some cool pics. The "bonsai" style seems to work well in cubes.

Hmmm.......I've seen a couple of Bonsai reefs before. The Google search gave me some interesting ideas. Thanks!


Anyone else?

I always just google reef aquascape and look until I find one I like and try to do one similar to it.. The thing about aqua scaping is no 2 rocks are the same so its always going to come out a little different

Apologies for the hijack, but how does one go about redoing the aquascape when there are lots of corals and fish in the tank? Do you do it around them or remove them? Any specific lessons learned when doing this?

:thumbs: Beautiful!

Thanks, that was the idea of what I was looking for. Just trying to get ideas.
I actually ended up doing something similar with my rock and was thinking it didn't look bad. Now that I see yours, I think I will leave it that way. I hope I can get some xenia to grow up the back wall, too. Or I was thinking of gluing some star polyps there.
