Default My Aquascape picture

I just picked up some Fiji rock for my 65gal tank. Unfortunately it's dry so I still have to seed it with some live stuff. Just thought I'd try to get some feedback about my aquascaping so far; Does it look right? Is it aesthetically pleasing? What would you suggest?

Looks good, just if your viewing fr the right, might want to move the rock away from the glass a bit for ease of cleaning.

yeah, good point. I did notice that and I think I will have to adjust that. I'm just afraid if I do, It won't look right anymore

As my tank fills up I find myself wishing I'd built more shelves and flat places into the rock structure, cause I'm running out of places to put frags.

Looks great! I would also recommend moving the rock away from the glass to allow for cleaning or you will have a circle of algae on the glass there very soon.

Does anyone have ideas on how to hide the powerheads, heater, etc?

I would suggest a closed loop instead of powerheads.
