Hey Grip, In your OP, where did you get the pic for the second to last photo? That's a really compelling design, I'm thinking I want something just like that

I just redid my aquascape, I like how it turned out, however I feel it would work better in a 72inch tank.

Please excuse the iphone pic

Yeah I love the separate "islands" or penninsula look but I see what you mean, it would be nice if it was spread out a bit more would making 3 stacks make any difference? I love the scape BTW

Thank you very much

I might be pulling out a single rock island, but leaving the four stacks. You really can't see what I mean in the photo.

But I'm planning too upgrade "hopefully" by this time next year, to at least a 6 footer. Which will be much better.

I think your 'scape looks just great
Like all the rest of us, do I keep it ? Does it look good?
Point is, you did a great job and do YOU like it?
It would look fabulous in MY tank

And what size is your tank anyway...
I'm buying a 75g and think your 'scape makes your tank look big

I like your new aquascape Dyspnea, i was going for something similar but couldn't get my rocks stacked that well. Should look great once covered.

Mine is a 52inch long 120ish gallons. I really want a six footer but I'm limited by the room size. I find that all fish (mine at least) generally do not swim in the top 25%. So it seems like alot of wasted space. And it would look better with a shallower tank.
