    D, don't lay the rocks flat like that point them upwards. Left side rocks pointing sightly left and right side rocks point sightly right.

    I would break some of the rocks. Use Large, medium, and small rocks gives is a more bended look.

    But than again, what do I know. Just IMHO bro.

    If anything call luis.

          you should just scratch the whole idea of a new tank and instead give it to me.

              I dont think it looks horrible...and if the fish like it then isnt that what really matters? In my personal opinion, I dont care for the slate rocks...but it is far from being an "eye-sore".

                Actually it's not that bad..could be better and could be worse. For the most part i'm glad it's like this for the unexpected tank mate..

                    The rockwork looks better in person than in pictures.

                    myjohnson brings up a good point about tilting some of the rocks. Its an Iwagumi thing.

                    Your fish will be happy in that setup - funny looking one included. :)

                              I used slate for a while in my troph tank and they did well even though it wasn't in the conventional orientation (two large piles). But, it worked and I got fry. You'll get tired of it and rescape soon.

                                are your two most recent pix what your tank looks like now? i'm lost...sry that happens easily this late lol.


                                on the original rockwork, consider adding a different type of rock to change things up. i love the color, and it's really unique. i bet it does look better in person. try for a touch more consistency, but not symmetry, because the uniformity will be bland. all in all, add one large piece of holey rock in the middle and that might tie the whole thing together. but don't get rid of what you have, because it's really nice.

                                and just cause i'm nosey...what weird fish?
