Anyone look at the tank one day and say "I hate my aquascaping"?

[Tasher80]

I was moving things today and I just have way too many new SPS' that I don't have the correct spaces for. My aquascaping was fine but now that the tank is filling up I need to redo it. good thing im moving in 5 weeks otherwise I would be redoing all the rockwork this weekend. I just wondered if anyone just looks at their tank and hates the way it looks even if everyone still thinks it looks great.

I get that sometimes
my tank is 30g so it only has 12'' depth to work with for aquascaping.
makes it hard to do much... I kinda like it now I have a few overhangs but lately I want to re do it completely!

[BigDaddy]

Yeah I've had my upgrade tank for a month and have redone it 3 or 4 times... it is a PITA but I finally have it where I look at the tank and say 'wow that looks pretty good'. then I notice the algae...

Every once in a while I'll move things around.

Can I join too! I look at everyones' beautiful tanks and say, maybe a cave would help or maybe I need to open the rock work from front to back, or maybe both! Yeah, I move stuff around including corals that do great in a spot for a period of time then suddenly need more or less light (probably due to changing rockwork). Anyway, its getting there-at least it not a straight wall anymore!

I'm with Loverotties. If my tank's aquascaping has stayed the same for more than two or three weeks...I'd be amazed.

I have to say that once I have it set up. I won't move anything again, I really don't like messing with it. I may move a corals if I have to but never redo any rock.

Saw this thread b4, and just noticed you started it Tony,,,LOL
Don't worry you will be re-arranging more during the move,,,
I look at my reef tank, and always think of moving this, moving that.
The couple of times i needed to remove a certain fish, (or Emerald crabs) i had to remove most if, not close to all of the LR etc, in the tank, so i re-arranged the tank while doing this, and changed things around (like i could put everythnig back the way it was LOL)
and not that i'm taking some excess stuff to the LFs, i end up re-decc'ing the tank by doing so.
If i ever get my 200 up n running ,and move the 75 stuff into it, (i know,i know)
I'll have enuf room in the tank for a while probably,and end up having the 200 filled to the gills (pun intended) all over again,just hope it takes a while. i hate going to a shop, and not being able to get anything, due to no room in the tank .
most all my SPs are located on eggcrate suction cuped to the front glass, as i have not much room to put them in the display part.(Too many 'shrooms,and other things that will bother the SPS, hopefully one day that will change with the 200,,LOL
BTW: Tony, I'm busy whatever day you are moving,,,LOL, My moving days are long over, this ol bod can't ever imaging doing that ever again,,,but i can be a great supervisor/whip cracker, if you need one,,,,

Sadly, I am afflicted with handinthetankitis. I have a medical reason why I must rearrange my rock on a weekly basis. My wife has been trying a new medication, losemyfishallowancezide, to help with my situation. This has worked to some small degree.

This disease is growing in ever increasing numbers.....can't someone just care?

When ever I look at my tank and think "I hate my aquascaping" I call my interior aqua designer. She has been featured in "Aquascape Digest" and knows just what patterns of fish and coral go well together. Sometimes she re-arranges things in the most spectacular of ways.

Cheers,

I look at my tank everyday and think "I need to add some more LR, rearrange that side, blah blah blah" then i remember the last time i did it. See if i go and arrange things, because i'm in the same boat as you, no room for SPS, i'll start moving things, break corals and have even more SPS to scatter around. I didn't have the room to begin with!

[xtopher]

I happen to love my aquascaping (for maybe a day or two more)

[tims]

mine is okay for now but will be going to a 120 soon, so i will have a lot more room. but sometimes it is hard not to move things around.

Anyone really like thier aquascaping and then get so dang mad 'cause their anemone is doing a bit of rearraging?

[yousuredo]
