One of the great parts of setting up a new reef tank or really any aquarium is aquascaping. In reef tanks, we aquascape using live rock. From a simple stack of rock held together via the weight of the rocks to the most artistic floating platform of coral held together with acrylic rods, PVC, or superglue it's all possible with just a little effort. You can connect rock and make your tank's rockwork very strong with super glue, maybe some acrylic rods, and a lot of elbow grease. This is one part of your reef tank where you're in total control.

I also need to come up with a way to block the light from my ATI Straton's from hitting my camera. I don't have a hood on this tank, it's open on top. I'll need to build something! Apologies for the blue light that's bleeding into the top of the frame on this video.
I upload at least one video each week, so check out my channel for more!
