    Looks nice!

    What kind of lights are you running?

    How old is the setup?

    Is it FOWLR?

    Very cool tank. However, you should try to paint the back so you don't see all of that equipment. It detracts from the tank IMO.

    Very well done. I agree with painting the back. Can we get some closer pictures? I want to see some details.

    ya i would paint it also and if posible add a sump. some much room back there. i guess the tank couldnt be drilled now, could it? looks good though. you could use HOB overflows if you decided to upgrade the filter in the future.
