And some early Scaping attempts.
Needed something that would accentuate the tank deapth and have a 3D effect. Scap had to go higher from Rght to left so that viewing the tank from the RT side one would see an ascending structure with many of the corals still visible.
Not sure if I should still make it a bit higher than this or not. Any suggetsions are welcome.

LT Island:
This one definitly will be a bit higher and will get a bit more creative in a couple of bridges

Middle island.
The obliquity and ascending from front to back bridge on this one should show the deaoth of the tank better.

Viewed from the RT side.

And a couple of islands on the RT side:

    That rock seems flimsy to me, maybe try some from the Cardboard Islands, I like the color and shapes that come from that region. other than that I think it looks great.

    Feel Free to use the paper rock thing, can't remember who I stole it from
    Tank will be an SPS dominated mixed reef.

    What a GREAT idea! I'm gonna have to remember that one too!

    Your "Scaping" does look awesome. I love the open look while still incorporating an ATOL type look. Depending on what coral you add where and how they grow you could be going towards a BONSAI look which is one of the best IMHO.

    Great work
