[rabadanmarco]

PLEASE HELP

Do you mean adjusting your rock? If so I am having this issue also. I believe I have 2 much rock in mine.

[rabadanmarco]

well the arrangmnent in general. when i see all these flourlishing aquariums online i notice they have very eye drawing aquascaping. and when i try it its like "it looks okay i guess"

[CoryDude]

I feel you Marco. I move one rock, then another, and before I know it I've got a big boring pile of rocks sitting in the middle of the tank.

Can you pull all the pieces out, lay them on the floor, and group them into similar pieces? Seeing all that you have to work with before assembling them in your tank has helped me in the past, but is not always feasible.

[rabadanmarco]

yea i guess ill try that. its alot harder working in tank. does anyone know of anything where you can stick the rocks together. like a reef glue or somthin

[Shu]

I would not glue. The reason is for expansion. Say you get a coral down the road the placement won't work out because its glued. This is just my opinion though.

[rabadanmarco]

ahhh good reason. anyways if anyone else has any pointers or who would like to help me let me know

[JoshOdphi]

yea...im the same way...seems like it try a million times to get it to look "okay"...

[4fun]

Yea i hate this too. If for some reason i need to move a rock from the bottom, I got to move 7-10 other rocks. Then to remember how they all went,just to look good, just drives me nuts. 116 lbs rock

i think everyone has trouble scaping, i just stacked according to what parts of the rock i like facing out and what locks in place safley without being unstable, most of the time when i dont try to hard is when it looks nice
