    I was also favoring the second, i tried the two island idea but the rock just wasnt working with me haha... any tips on how to transfer the rock into the tank without destroying the scape?

    when I did mine, I took each layer off and layed it out flat on the ground then transfered it that way, I also glued smaller pieces together.

    I also took pictures of it, and had a picture up of it on my computer as I was putting it in the tank
