Here's mine.. Well I'm in the process of building my upgrade tank.

I started with...



I build my aquascape using dry rock, zip ties and 3/8" nylon rod and nuts.



Final aquascape for my future reef tank...

^ I like the before best but the after will give you a little more room to place corals on the right island.

I agree. The first one is more pleasing ... the after is more practical.

Both look great though!

Here's my shot at minimalist aquascaping. Ordered 45 lbs. of BRS Reef Saver but used probably under 40 lbs. I used zip ties to prevent and collapsing of the arches. I'll probably have to change up something on the right island. Let me know what you all think I should change.

i love these threads!!! i like the simple look, i did it in my tank too......sort of. i have a foam wall on the back of the tank with rock on it but it keeps it out of sight sort of, as most ppl look at the rock on the bottom pane of the tank and not the back wall
corey

Nice tank. ... Amazing how a minimalistic tank can fill up if the corals grow correctly

I think before looks better however after provide more area for corals and future growth. Both are really good. Better than most I've seen.
