    Looks very clean! Is it all brand new? This is just my opinoin but you could prob do with a bit more.

    What matters tho is whether your happy with it.

    it looks open and clean but you may want a few pieces or live rock to seed your setup.

    did you do/if anything to the rock, before you put it in your tank?

    Hi, well, i must tell you, you really don't have live rock per se'. Depending on how long you soaked them in fresh water, all the bacteria on/in them probably died. They will become live again as your tank develops it's own bacteria. I would add some live bacteria to give your tank a healthy base. The aqua scape looks good, it is a matter of personal taste. With a fish only tank, with good filtration (the rock not being the main) sparse rock tanks will flourish.

    Very nice, can't wait to see this tank in 5 months, with some coraline! Add more if you want, if not for a fish only, looks very nice!
