I am having my first try at aquascaping and I have come up with something I think is half way decent. I do have some questions, though.

Is it to vertical? Think there is plenty of place to put corals?

Not enough places for fish to hide in? Should I attempt to chisel any hiding spots?

The red outline on the left is where I am thinking of breaking a different rock and placing it there to have it flow towards the front at a downward angle. The black line on the top is where the top of the tank would be (4ft x 2ft).

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the comment. I ended up chiseling out a cave through the taller pieces on each side. I am amazed I didn't break either rock in half as this was my first time doing this :).

It's always amazed me too. You can even drill holes with a paddle bit in your drill. I love zipties. I just got a big container of them for Christmas. [emoji23] your scape is pretty cool to me..I suck at makeing them. Maybe I'm too fussy. Let's see a new pic.

Here are some shots of the holes I chiseled through the two tall end rocks and a full view shot. At this point I am calling it good.
