Very cool tank, like the sand choice, its a nice change. Not sure i would advocate using black rubber radiator hoses on your return system tho.

I have to say I have never seen those plastic boards used as baffles before .. love the super deep stand Is it effective at that depth? I assume the baffles are not "water" tight, so it probably doesn't get too anaerobic down there.

the plastic boards are not that good actually, all i had around so i used them. next time it will be glass. the dsb seems to work good. there is layers of black in it but i have always used a dsb this deep and found them very effective. i had a 40g hex that was a non photosynthetic tank with tube anemones and feed heavy. no problems at all with a 8" dsb.
