    I know you cant tell from the pics but none of the rock is touching the glass or the false wall at the back of the tank.

    These Photos are form last week sometime -- I will post new pics after I get my CUC to pretty up the tank a bit. Probably 2 weeks from now.

    Any comments on my rock work and Power head placement are welcome.

    I really like the way you curved it around to make a little bay area.

    @som3 reef3r you must have x-ray vision cause the thermometer is in section 1 in the filter area. You are probably talkin about the nano power head maybe.

    I see the thermometer as well....but the rock work is great!!, open areas, has a nice open area on the bottom for flow under the rocks. Great work!
