All of these look great. I'm getting a lot of ideas for aquascaping my new big tank...

I will have to see if I can find a thread on hear with some gorgeous pictures. The way the rock was placed was very cool and looked like there would be no problems with dead spots which is a huge problem when I stack rock...

Here is that thread. I love the way the rock is done.

My aquascape is probably the most unique thing about my new set-up. Using a series of electrical ties I created the arch in the center and the overhang on the left. All together it created what I call my "Dragonscape".



Updated full tank shot...

Geso beautiful work!

I used 1/2" pvc on the left, zip-ties on the right. No 'after' shot since I'm filling the tank right now for the first time.
