    Thanks John. I didn't really like it at first because there's so little rock but I'm seeing the potential now. Room for colonies to get big, room for fish to swim, etc.
    Don't think I'll be adding much more.

    I brought about 15#'s of rock from the fuge in my 90 and used them to build the scape in this tank up a little more. I think it may be plenty now.

    But first a few pics of the other stuff....

    Drain to sump and return. The tuning tube in the elbow is about 6" long and works perfectly. This is hands down the quietest over flow I've ever had.

    Left side of sump. You can see the drain come through the glass and tee. The top side of the tee @ the 45 is a muffler which allows air to rise out if a burp builds. It's at an angle to keep water from spraying the bulb if the air brings any with it.

    Full shot of the sump. I need to get a 3rd CFL installed to light up the area on the end at the L.

    Now the changed aquascape
    FTS. Can you tell which side has the newer Ushio 14K? LOL

    Left side. If you look you can see one of the two pencil urchins.

    Follow the line of the clam shell arch. You can see his spines sticking out of the dark hole. :)
