Ok so I have been running a thread on another board, and thought I would post some pictures here to see what all of you thought.....I have set up a 54 gal bowfront corner tank for the cuttlefish.....It has a sump, but no skimmer, just a canister filter with carbon.....here are a few pictures and even a few videos of the cuttle in the tank now established.....it has been in the tank about a month and a half......I will post more pictures upon request....

I did the back walls with rock, and crushed coral......I have 1 175watt MH and two 420/460 65watt bulbs on a coralife 24 inch fixture......there are about 30 different colored zoanthids in the tank, and lots of other softies......this is the upstairs tank, and everything has been fragged out of the main tank in the basement.......

very nice tank, especially love the walls, but isn't that bad for the glass?

I have seen no ill effects on the glass, everything looks great and the tank has been up and running for about 3-4 months now.....one thing about doing this to the glass, once it is done, it will never come off.....so in a way you are right, it does make it really hard to scrape with a mag float though......:)
 
Here are some pictures and videos from today...he, yes it is a boy.....I did the mirror trick and he started to show off.....half of him turned black and the other half turned white.....the side facing the mirror was white for a little while until he flashed and scared himself....then he got really mad and tried to attack the glass......but anyway here are some picutres of him after playing tag......he will chase my hand and then I chase him......then he puts on a little show of colors...
