"As you know, there are no rules for aquascaping your reef aquarium, it is an art and only you can decide what will suit your taste best."
Perhaps there may be no rules for aquascaping, but it sure as heck can be pretty tough for some people... even to get it to work out the way they want.
It isn't as easy and clear cut as it may seem to be. Of course, everything you want to do probably won't work out right - you won't be able to find the right stones for the right effect, you can't find the best looking corals or other pieces and in some cases they may plainly just look bad in your tank.
Everyone ought to really think through their aquascaping, and not become too attached to their coneptualization - otherwise they will be massively disapointed when things don't work out as they had hoped. Set a realistic aquaxcaping goal, and plan on it not working out and do your best to work out the kinks you come accross.
The best of success,

Thanks for the input Jay but I cetainly didn't mean to imply in my post that aquascaping a reef aquarium was an easy task. As you mentioned, the limitations of available live rock etc. will be a limiting factor but it just seems that alot of reef hobbiests end up with that boring "brick wall" structure.
The intent of my post was to point out the randomness in natures reefs and give reef hobbiests an open mind about aquascaping.
