Realized
One thing I realized after a few iterations was to account for 2-3" of sand. I ended raising everything up a few times because of that.

Wow thats cool man.
Aesthetically, B has a nicer flow to it. Now let's get that tank wet!

I kept changing between version A and B so many times that a few pieces came apart suddenly.
The good news was that I was able to improve it further after the accident. I added a bunch of small caves, nooks and tunnels. I strive for healthy bio diversity with copepods and bristleworms. I also lost one leg of the structure on the left but is stable without it. Rather than reattach it I figured this should allow room for additional islands. I really like Zoa, GSP, Xenia ect and this will be mostly a softie and LPS tank so islands will likely be a big help. I will need to get the islands higher up off the sand because the sand sifting goby is relentless.

To keep things moving I just setup a 30g downstairs and the rock is soaking now with a pump for a few days. I'll replace most of the water every day for 2-3 days. I'll then add the salt water and start the rock cycling. Picked up some Fritz PRO - Ammonium Chloride and Brightwell Aquatics MicroBacter7 Thanks for the support and advice! |

I like the left of A and the right of B. Just remember you don't want anything too close to the sides. That gives your corals room to grow and fill the space without you swearing when you have to clean the glass.
