Very nice! Just curious.. is there a reason why the legs on your light are sitting on top of your tank instead of hanging off the tank's trip lip? It looks like they might be sitting on a glass lid or a piece of euro bracing rather than off of the trim of the tank.

Yah, its sitting on the lid right now. I have to move the legs back yet so they sit on the lip of the tank. No excuses, just didn't do it yet!

Thanks for the compliments. The rocks are not glued, just stacked and wiggled around a lot to make sure they were stable. I thought about a sump when I first upgraded but decided against it, and I'm not about to do it now that I have everything where I want it. Aquascaping is frustrating!!

I would move the rock away from the sides if possibly. it will make it easier to keep the tank glass clean when coraline alage taskes hold. Other then that it looks great.

Looks fine now but wait when it gets covered in coraline and turf algae. Also that is where all of the dertrius is going to build up and its going to be impossible to siphone out.
