We all know Peter's tank, it is totally different category and made to look natural. This one is showing skillful art and aquascape design like no other I've seen. Each tank is best in its own way. You can also throw Chingchai's tank and few others to the conversation, but as far as aquascape this one is in its own category. Beauty is in the eye of beholder. :)

Agree, lot of tank like Peter..but the aquascape those one is amazing...Thanks.
 
I really like this scape. I feel like my corner overflows are the biggest eyesore in my tank and this guy completely got rid of them by making them part of teh scape. When I have to do a teardown some day, I'm seriously considering a design like this on the next build. I've learned a lot about aquascaping now that my sps colonies are starting to grow in. It's hard to envision how things will turn out once the coral grows in. When you're a noob to growing coral, you don't even know what growth patterns are like.
 
Wait, I noticed he didn't show any use of glue. Are you kidding me? Wouldn't that just collapse at some point? Do people really do that with large arrangements?
 
Everything is always so perfectly trimmed in pics and videos like this, nothing seems to be touching but everything is healed well, often the sand even looks new. Are they just that much more awesome than me, is their husbandry that good? Or it is all staged very recently with freshly purchased coral colonies?

Edit: The Peter's 1350 video actually looks a little more real to me. I'm talking about some of the perfect Thai ones you see long posts about on RC.

My scape, which is much less intricate, is held together with about four large tubes of plumbers epoxy and multiple zip ties. I still question its stability. However, his is leaning against the overflows and mine is free-standing so fish and flow can get behind it.
 
Plumber's epoxy is interesting Gunner. I may try that sometime over water-weld. I guess I'd expect scapes of this size to be drilled and rod reinforced.

if you are talking about JB Weld .. DONT DO IT, i used it to pretty much scape my tank and only feeling ok cause those pieces are not heavy .. im 100% sure it wont hold heavier pieces for a long time.
