It was just the right size to hold stuff up, or I would have had to stand there for a couple of hours

Very nice did you silicone the rocks on? Did you cut them flat on the back first?
Really love the wall with sand behind it.

Thanks for all the replies everyone. One of the plans is for the stand to be clad in stone. We know a stone mason, so when we are ready he will do it for us, since we are doing his tile soon. The stone was cut on a tile saw, and yes they were cut flat and siliconed to the travertine...
I will be updating the flicker photo page shortly with some more pictures. There is water in tank but it is not full yet. We are hoping to have it done for Christmas. I just noticed I do not have any pictures of the tank with water in it. I will add them later when the water clears ups a little bit. Quote:

Pictures with water now up
Just an update. There are now photos of the tank with water in it. I have to say it sure looks different.

Well with my research on this fantastic site, I think I am going to use substrate under the live rock, and have the 12"x12" travertine tiles on the front part for ease of cleaning. My husband started playing with the 1"x1" travertine squares to build dividing wall to hold the substrate back from the marble. It is looking good but I am thinking that perhaps I should take some broken pieces and build the wall with that to compare the look. The little squares will be much easier to silicone together, but I have the day off, so I am like a kid with Lego. Nothing is siliconed yet (ran out and have to drive into Calgary for more), and some of the travertine is wet which shows up darker in the pictures.
I cannot post the pics here so they are in my flickr account. What do you all think? I am still learning how to use this account since I just started it last night so the pictures are all over the place. Sorry about the mayhem. Any comments, ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated since we only want to do this ONCE. http://www.flickr.com/photos/30861436@N08/
