Put up the sides today and got my light finished to test it and see what it looks like.

I think I get it. Looks to be a drop off style aquarium but your making a little swimming area in the middle? Lol if I'm correct

I think it's the other way haahaa! Probably stack rock in the middle and have the two sides "drop" away.
