How real is your aquascape?

[Nandez13]

I've personally never kept any fake objects in either of my tanks but am curious to see if other people have gotten creative with their tanks. I've seen people's tanks with a bridge, statues, a buddha, train and other random objects in it. None of these were toyish looking but rustic, subtle coloring. Some looked better than the others. I've seen some objects completely covered in zoas which looked pretty cool.

Anyway, I'm curious to see if anyone has gotten creative with their aquascape design and incorporated their corals into it. Post some photos for people to see

Was actually thinking about trading it with another of the same but empty (good for a beginner) but has a big sentimental value so i definitely just keep it
(Unless i find a newbie willing to get me the same exact bridge [petland] ) lol

That is an awesome piece. If you can get an RBTA to stay at the end. Or maybe a nice piece of acro that would be even cooler.

That's crazy, I never would've gave it up after putting that much work into it. This is my setup right now. The pillar on the right is a PVC frame with a bunch of small rocks glued to it. Something this simple ended up being a PITA getting to position the rocks the right way.

Other than that, all the rocks are just sitting on top of each other; nothing is tied in or glued. It does have a lot of crevices and caves which I like and my fish love to swim through but I still want to play with the layout a bit.

Not sure what object I want to place in there just yet but I'd end up covering it in zoas. I'd be open to any suggestions.
