    Sold almost everything and started over with a few pieces from the old and a few new as well. This was my first go with aquascaping and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out I am going to focus on some different corals this go around with the knowledge iv been gaining over the past couple years. Bring on the comments, good or bad!!

    And this is the before picture. Only reason I started over was change was needed. I wasn't the least bit happy with my rock for mult reasons so hopefully I will continue to like the new set up!

    I like the scape. The tallest rock on the right maybe to not have that piece pointing to the left, it looks a tad awkward. Again, scapes are in the eye of the beholder and the most important thing is do YOU like it....

    Thanks oldfishkeeper! It didn't come out exactly how I had it planned but like you said, I am still happy with it. I was attempting to make a hanging appearance defying gravity type stuff. I can always change it in the future if I wind up not liking it ;)

    I like both the old and the new actually.

    Thanks sailor guy. I guess it wasn't so much the scape I didn't like before but more of the selection of corals. I had a few "ugly" pieces that I added when I first started, and those were the runs that ran over top of the finer corals in the tank. Lesson learned.
