suggestions on rockscape

I am trying to figure out how to do my rocks while we are working on repairing the tank. I am going to drill the final centerpiece and use epoxi and rods.....but here is one idea i am tossing around. I wanted a shelf for my clams and an area for my non-photo pieces. I am thinking I am going to do island type pieces, so what ye say about this as center.......


it will go directly into the center between the 2 overflows.

honest opinions,,,,,,, i am not set on this, not even sure I like it!!!

I have not saved the piece even, the rocks are all back apart and in rock trough right now....

 

No room for your fish to hide????

 

personally, i think that looks really cool. it would be a welcome addition in anyones tank mel. K for your imagination and creativity.

well this is only 1/3 of the rocks. I actually have about 250lbs of rocks i can use in the tank. I was just wanting to get a centerpiece and then have other rock structures coming off on the right and left sides of the tank.
thanks all

 

now that will look awesome!!! Send pics when it is done please!!!8)

 

I think that is a great idea, can't wait to see the final product.

 

meh, i don't like it. I like the idea you described, I do not like the structure in the pic. I get the idea that you're trying to make a shelf with the bonus of shade under it but would go more of a bottomless (well, no rock floor) and more cave like...

 

yeah i am not sure about it........

Honestly, I am tossing the idea around of not putting the tank back up. It has been down now for what 1 1/2 weeks and there is something about not having the constant humm of electricity flowing through the house and the quietness of not having a big tank running that is kind of nice! It has definatly given my electricity and my ac a much needed break in this 100 weather!

 

sometimes, rarely, my tank gets shut down... it's creepy quiet in the house then... I know what you mean though...

 

Not sure I could sleep without the white noise of the tank anymore
