Ahhh! Finally I see the light at the end of the tank build tunnel and boy is my wife happy. Just a few finishing details left to go.

Thanks Michika, but I must confess I bought the wrong color and was too lazy to go get the one I wanted, I was going to paint it white, everything happens for a reason.

Thanks Pastout' The pvc structure I made was a basturdized version of Superfudge's 1000 gal project. I made a base using 1/2 inch pipe and t's then created the arch shape I wanted. I drilled holes in the pvc and the rocks and then fastened the rock to the pvc with zap straps. It's a bit time consuming but well worth the effort in the end. I still have room for more rocks which lends to coral placement. In the past I have even created pvc structures that hang on the tank and allow you to place rock near the surface without fear of them collapsing.

Heres the link to sperfudge's 1000k project. http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/sho...erfudge&page=7
