Yukonblizzard's Shark and Ray Reef Lagoon

Do you plan on adding more rock, 50 pounds sonds like very little. Another thing you may want to look into is making rocks, with this size rock can get really expensive.

Yeah 50 pounds is very little, but keep in mind that the sharks and rays need plenty of surface sand to swim over. But I would like to get more, and make the rock formations taller. I actually do have 3 large DIY rocks that I made a while back that I will probably put in the tank, but I like the look of the natural rock better.
 
That's great!! Love this build. This is one of the best threads ever. Keep up the good work, this project really gives people some ideas.
 
Awesome!!! You have water!!!

Can you take a picture of the rest of the room. Id love to see the viewing area and such.
 
And we have water AWESOME!!!! Looks great

One thing I am wondering is if the flow through the sump will be sufficient for keeping the heat in the tank stable. Just because it such a large volumn of water and from what I can see there are only heaters in the sump. Maybe placing a heater in the fuge since it is at the other side.

Thanks SeaIsle!

That is a problem that I have been thinking about, I think that the fuge has to slow of flow to heat the water efficiently, so would you think if I put more heaters in the sump would that help at all?
