Default Aquascape critique

Hello all, would appreciate critique on my aquascape before I start to epoxy it all. Tank is a peninsula style tank 44x24x20.

Sweet tank.

I would probably make the gap between the 2 structures slightly wider.
That way when the corals grow out, you can still see the division.

Hey Kein,

I've read and been following your build. Thank you for the compliment. I wish my tank was wider, would have been easier to make some more caves.

That's one of the downsides of a penninsula tank. You end up having a very narrow avenue in the middle of the tank for aquascaping. It's definitely a challenge. Wish mine was wider too :-)

That's the sucky thing with tanks they are never wide enough or long enough to do what we want to do.

Is it possible to spread your large rock formation a little more give your critters a few more hiding spots, maybe a bit better water flow and maybe easier access to areas to put coral in without gluing in? Just a thought
