I am resurrecting a nano that has been sitting in my garage for a couple of years. The tank is a 7 gallon, scratch built glass tank. My goal, is to make it look like a much larger tank, even though it is only 20"L x 9"W x 10"H. Playing around with the scape now.

This was the tank a couple of years ago before I broke it down and added everything to my 140. I was basically using it to collect frags for the new tank. Probably should have kept it going though.

Current 18 gallon (has more rock in it now due to necessity)

75 gallon (torn down)

120 gallon (torn down)

Very Inspiring! Great use of negative space with a great 3D perspective. Do you have a build thread? I'd love to follow along and see this grow out over time!

I'm in the need/mood to reaquascape my 5 year old tank. Time to get the Thorite out!

I wish I knew how to aquascape.

Hey guys...could someone point me in the direction of a thread that talks about drilling/"framing" LR?

I have been searching and cant really find anything specific on it. I want to renew my 75g and open it up a little more for swimming area, but hard to do much else than the conventional rock stacking wall sort of thing.

Looking to get away from that.

I know that I need a masonry bit...planning on using PVC for the frame pieces. Beyond that I am somewhat at a loss.

All very beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

use threaded acrylic rods and nuts available on the marcorocks site. use their cement to fill in the gaps and hold things together. They sell it in a kit if you are looking for it in bulk.

still need to take a new picture but here is mine:

Hmm...just found this. Well I currently have a drill, and lots of big zip ties....so we will see how that works out. Probably better than "cementing" in a running system anyways. Ill do it to my softie reef before my sps's.

Joost, what is your scape made out of?
