    Are you keeping it fish only? If you are going to add corals then I dont really like the scaping. Just my opinion though...

    Sorry, not feeling it. My thing is that I like it to look more natural than that. K+ though because thats just MY opinion.

    You've got so much room front to back, I'd make it more 3D. But its a good start.

    Did you use any LR? If not, consider getting one piece to seed the rest of your base rocks.

    Looking good so far.
    I don't know if the scape will work well for corals. But it certainly looks nice for a fish only set up.

    I think it looks great. How did you get rid of your cyano? I am having the same problem.

    The second one is more coral accessible, however, my 55 gal. is much like the last pic and with a little difficulty, coral can be placed.

    I know everybody as different opinion I personally don't like the pile of rock but I may change my mind as I will grow in this hobby.

    Why won't it work well for coral?
    I am new to this hobby so I have no experience for the best aquascaping for coral so what is best.
    Picture would help.


    And for the cyano question I had to use red slime remover. I try everything you guys told me and nothing was working it was getting worst by the hour so I broke down and bought the stuff.
