that looks awesome davec. how sturdy are the pieces togther without using any compound?

Very sturdy. I tried pushing them over with reasonable force & they didn't budge. Still not sure I'd trust that in a glass tank. I might zip tie the bigger pieces.

Looks awesome laid out like that. How are you gonna get the pieces into the tank? Man, I can't move a rock and then put it back the way it was 5 minutes later, they never fit together the same way!

Just curious why you want to run UV, what's the goal behind that?

Awesome Setup Dave,

I look forward to watching it come together! We have some of the same equipment... Ozotech, Aquatronica, Tunze's

Nice stuff! Glad to see you are doing it right, from the beginning.

Same steel stand with wooden shroud on magnets too.
