Very nice! I wish I could see the rock scapes they started with!

Not the best picture from a cell but today at world wide corals. Like the scape.

Same as the first, just with corals. I'm going to try something similar.

Here's a couple that I have found. There has been a lot thru out the "ages" that I have found and based my tank off of.

Yea you might want to buy stock in Marco Mortar vs. buying 2.5 lbs! Ha Ha!

Also, you can read about his system here on Reef Builders,

And probably just about anywhere else... just Google Mr Kang

No way, zip ties my friend, zip ties and careful planning and cutting.

Very nice. I've seen that rock wall one shared before. It's nice, but it's very cluttered for my taste, but still... INSPIRATIONAL! I added pictures to your links so we could have them here!

 

Here is another one I think is tasty:

I am also shocked that Crazy4acros has not been shared yet:

 

 

Oh la la!

I actually have a folder labeled, "Aquascapes" as I was coming up with my idea for my re-build

 

 

These I just had saved for general awesomeness

Isaac, the last one in your first post is my favorite.  

 

Simple, and the sand is really really clean.  Unlike mine right now!

[Ryan S]

This is simply beautiful.

 

[matt]

I've seen this and save on my PC somewhere...love how it came out...not sure I could personally replicate

 

 

 

Oooooh, ahhhhhh

 

 

 

 I could see doing a variation of this and affording some really cool coral placement...but if ever it a joint should fail I shudder to think of the outcome

 

 

 

 

 

[jacobB89]

Ahh darn I hate you Issac for starting this thread lol. Now I have more changes I want to do with my tank... Hmm might order more rock or something.

[BowieReefer84]

A lot depends on what corals you want as well.  I like encrusting monti, and they do better on the standard fiji rock.  The pukani from BRS is so porous it would take FOREVER to get a frag to spread out.

Perfect timing for this thread! Hoping to use this as inspiration on my new build:

To contribute, I know they're not as pretty and clean as the above, but I was pretty proud of my aquascapes:

[Wrench]

Very cool thread! IMO the best aquascapes look horrible until the corals grow in. The hobbyists with the real skill have the ability to envision how the corals will grow in which allows them to make the shape of the reef and not necessarily just the rock. I lack that ability lol.

Wow, some of those are really well done

This is fantastic! Thank you!  But.... no love for nanos???
