f you watch the whole thing you'll see I've abandoned drawer slides finally in favour of a pvc light rack. It allows me to slide each light individually front-to-back and side-to-side. Lovin' it!
Brett things look great, nice job! I love that PVC rig for the lighting.
What a cool idea!

Looks great Brett.

I'm jealous of that water clarity!

Thanks again!

Robb I don't even have the ROX running yet and the watchman goby is making sure he finds all the fines still left in the sand after rinising lol. It is pretty clear already tho...

On another note... sure is a nice feeling to finally turn my kole loose in some decent space. He never seemed unhappy before but the way he glides now (and the squareback too) is awesome. Nobody covers ground faster than my melanarus... he's on speed in this tank!

Are you running filter socks? I was thinking of adding them, but I'm kinda lazy and the need to be changed frequently.

Looks good! I love watching fish swim around in big tanks...that's something you just can't accomplish in small tanks no matter what. The light rack is brilliant...I'm going to steal that idea sometime when I can apply it.
