[Ricardo18]

Glad to help. One aspect of this hobby that I enjoy (besides not killing everything) is the back room;making it as efficient as possible...it could be a challenge indeed.

The real challenge lays with the cables!

That's why I don't show pics of the engine room!I am too embarrassed!:lol:

Mine were all nice and neat but two years later geez Louise. Everything is looking great Wayne, nice approach on the rock work.

Thanks aquaph. The rockwork a'int no joke. The reality check is gonna happen when its placed in the tank and then as Sonicboom said "I think you need more rock." Or something close to that.

Please don't fall into the common trap of placing too much rock to visually fill the space where corals should eventually grow. Leave lots of room for growth and swim room for the fish.

I am not. There will be lots of pass throughs and caves. I am thinking maybe at the most 300 lbs of rock. Your thoughts?
