Hi Guys,
I have the green light from 'she who shall be obeyed' to push on with my new 1500 x 450 x 450 tank (not the typical 600mm width I know, but I have limited room width available). Normally I'm pretty creative and solution orientated, but I'm struggling to visualise a layout for this new tank.
I have the following initial loose objectives in mind:

I have the following initial loose objectives in mind:
- I'm planning for it to be a nature style, and very heavily planted, but I'm open to some small area(s) of sand maybe.
- The tank will be regularly viewed from the right hand end in addition to the front, so that needs to built into the scape design (and is one of the main areas I'm struggling with) - I can't have soil and plants pressed high up against the glass at that end for example.
- I'm aiming for lots of individual areas of interest, plenty of places the fish can swim through, and around, and interact with.
- Though the tank is a lot larger than my current 60 litre, I want to try and maintain the same 'scale' as the small tank, not just have hard scape items, plants and fish that get larger and scale up with the tank size. All my livestock will be smaller/nano species, and my plant choices will be small leaf species. I want to maintain the miniature underwater world look of my 60 litre but more or it spread over a 1500mm tank length if that makes sense.
