The Build

The aquascape build involved some substrate support scaffolding since I wanted to do a scape that would look nice from multiple angles with the primary view being at an angled front right perspective.

Hence my attempt at a layout with a centered ‘Iwagumi’ slope!

Here is how I started out the build from the ADA substrate to the use of SnappGrid eggcrates to create the slope. I used Black Mountain Seiryu Stones to create the ‘Iwgumi’ slope.

The intent is to create the vibe of those beautiful green cliffs seen in places like Quiraing on the Isle of Skye, Scotland.

And, of course, Addy the aquascaping cat is here to supervise the fill…
