If you've got the room, try going deeper (front to back) than 18". Much easier to aquascape and a much better sense of depth.

So i ordered the tank today and put a deposite down on it. can't wait to see it. Also picked up the bulbs from my tek sunlight supply t5 fixture which is absolutely amazing.

but i am planning on moving everything over from my SPS 10gal nano into this tank and that will just become a spare for frags.
