    That is a nice tank. I have never been a big fan of real tall tanks. Only because of the light factor. But it looks like you have good lighting for it. I want a 110 or a 150 but I want a longer tank. But it is lookin great. Keep the pics comin.

    Wasn't 100% happy with my aquascaping, so now I got a bunch of rocks just lying inside the tank.... guess I will be spending my Sunday, arranging and re-arranging... What a mess!! Do most of you use glue?? I am a bit hesitant 'cause then I can't move them again.... what are the downsides of gluing? Any comments? I also bought some pvc pieces, so I could drill holes.Then again, I'm hesitant to take the rock out of the water, is that ok?

    Not so sure... it's also in Kilos but I think it should be sufficient. Just prefer the minimalistic look plus planning on adding lots of corals, so don't want to overcrowd. But since I purchased the Aquatronica controller, I can see that my water parameters are next to perfect. However, will wait for another 3 weeks before I add any livestock.
    Btw. changed the aquascaping again today.... but can't see much yet, the sand is all stirred up. But will post pics later for your comments.....
    But might just add a bit more rock... but again, I am taking my time... don't want to make the same mistake I did before... when all my corals and fish died :(

    I'm kinda new here, and I mean no harm, but...

    The first picture you posted of the tank with the light fixture shows it leaning next to a curtain. I have to wonder and ask out of sincerest kindness - is that considered a fire hazard? I suspect lights get very hot, and would think that touching a curtain is a major concern.

    Just looking out for your best interests!
