Looking for Feedback on Aquascaping Rock
 

I am playing around with some aquascaping and looking for some feedback on how I have the rock configured in my 120. Here are some shots to give you an idea of where I landed.

Let me know your thoughts please.

P.S. Have Special Grade Seaflor sand going in but have not placed that in the tank yet.

what kind of coral are you planning on keeping?? I love the left side, but the columns on the right might limit you from placing coral effectively.

nice looking tank by the way, very clean overflow and return on the back

Looking to go mixed reef, which means I might be limited on the right. I am trying to avoid going with a wall of rock, but also want to try to maximize real estate.

how about combining the three columns to make one? little more space on top and if they are not all the same height then it makes very handy ledges for coral mounting

I'd maybe try taking the top rock off the front tower and then pushing the 3 towers together?

How does this look:

that looks really good. I like that!

Looks very nice. I might do the same thing. Just got my tank two days ago. Is that a 48" x 24" x 24"h?

Sorry is that Macro rocks?

yeah i like that a lot more nicely done.

hopefully the rock doesn't leech too much nutrients out. always a battle when you've got a pile of marco algae all over your macro rock.

Yup 48x24x24. Classic 120

No, it is the BRS Reef Saver Dry Aquarium Live Rock.

It is the BRS reef saver rock so I don't expect to have the issues like you see with macro rock as they are supposed to be clean. However I have used Phosfree over about 3 weeks to try to see if I can get as much of the latent phosphate to leech out before going live in the tank.

looking good jeremy man soooooo..you wanna come do mine lol :P

How many pounds of rocks are there and what is the shipping cost?

I like the set up of the rocks, you will still have alot of space and room to play with corals, it almost looks like the right side is like hedges, its neat :)

70 pounds - cost was only about $40 which I thought was really good!

Cool - thanks

Are you referring to this:

Lanthanum Chloride and Lanthanum sulfate...

Yes that was the stuff. There was some other stuff that some other forums mentioned, but I could not find that in Canada so this stuff was supposed to be the next best thing. We'll see if it worked!

I have obtained this product which is a rebrand of the Sea Klear everyone in the US uses. I have not yet tried it though. It is Lanthanum Chloride only.

I'm curious as to how you used the product?

I used a spare 29 gallon tank, filled that tank with my rock and dumped about a capful at a time. Each day I did a 5-gallon water change and added more of the LC. Did that for about 3 weeks - at first the water was crazy cloudy but over time went very clear.
