    Ordered 120 lbs of Arag-Alive Indo-Pacific black sand today. I think this will be a good look.

    Framed in my wall this evening. It was a dry run so to speak. Tweaks to come. Having a tough time getting a good picture. Will work on that.

    Friggin' awesome!
    I really dig the work and the look the picture frame style produces.

    I think on my next build, I will do a peninsula. But the picture frame style could win depending on the area I have!

    The top and sides are hinged. The openings are designed so I can work on the tank from the front.
