    The rock works are a bit tricky. I don't really like glue and stuffs, so I have to make sure the structure are rock solid when stacking them up. There are lots of caves and opening, walls and bridges.

    There aren't many things added on the tank yet (not until another year, as it is a year project). Right now there are a few soft corals that are very hardy (introduced on different time), a few snails, and a few hitchhikers from the live rocks (cured). No fish until April next year. The water parameters are perfect: NH3 0 - N2 0 - NO3 0 - Phosphate 0 - Salinity 1.023 - PH 8.2 (I check the water daily).

    Wow I just looked at the website you provided for your tank and that is a bad A little tank. The price tag is not too bad considering either. I also dig the rock scaping too. Love the clown goby BTW.

    They come with the tank, an all in one kind of tank. Scope out the link the OP put up in the first post really cool.
