    I have a 65 gallon hexagon with about 50lbs of liverock. I've never found a suitable way to organize my rock. I want to keep it off of the back glass to eliminate waste buildup. But I also want it to look natural and fish-friendly. Any suggestions?

    With a hex, I would do a pillar setup.

    I imagine a 3 pier with a shelf on top. To small ones in front and a wall one in back. These all support an upper area for all the corals to go. This would give some neat water flow patters places for your fishies to swim.

    Just me though.

    I was going to suggest the same thing as jonjonwells. Haha. That would look great and be practical as well.

    Would I need to drill my rock for this? I'm not picturing it in my head. Do you have any pics that look similar to what you're suggesting?
