Looks nice! Like the long exposure shots and the effect on the surface it gives. Interesting that the sand isn't moving around enough to blur on the 2.5s shots.

Would love to see a shot down the long side if you get a chance .. (please and thank you)

Sand doesn't move at all except for one 4" length along the front glass.

Long side pics don't come out all that great as either the lit end is completely overexposed to properly expose the unlit end or the unlit side of the tank is underexposed to properly expose the lit side of the tank. Will have to wait till I get my lighting sorted out.

Nice tank love that rimless look.
I have some sand but you are a bit too far away.

Yea, thanks Mike... I'm pretty stoked on the visual outcome.. Basically what I had in mind from the beginning.

Don't let Myka see you talkin about "rimless".. I figure I'll end up buying a bag of sand before I find half a one..

Looks great Josh! I love the look of less rock, more water. Seeing your rockscape, I think the PBrT would probably look quite nice (albeit a shoal of Anthias is AWESOME). Do you still have the same stocking plans now?

Ya, that trimless look is real nice, eh? Seriously though, it does provide a nice, clean look. I am a fan of it, and my own tank would have been trimless, but my Jawfish harem plans needed a lid!
