Aquascaping Tutorial - Hardscape and Dragonstone

I recommend watching this at 1.25 to 1.50x speed!
One of the central pillars of aquascaping and designing a scene is the rule of thirds. In this video, I focus on this idea, as well as developing the illusions of depth, perspective, shadowing, amongst other things.

Tip: leaning the stones towards the front so that a shadow is cast at the foot of the hardscape allows a sense of ominous grandeur, suggesting that the scale of your tank is bigger than it really is.

Substrate is Controsoil, and dragonstone for hardscape.
