Pics!

Finaly the dust has settled for now and I can get up some pics. The hawkfish and the frags are in my 30 waiting for the cycle to finish. The rock for the 30 will be going in here also giving my a total of 55lbs of fiji and marshall in the tank and I will be adding 10 to 15 lbs of rubble to the sump, plus aout 3 more inches of sand in the sump/fuge area.

Nice looking tank, very clean looking. I like the way the rockwork looks very open. Is it stable that way?

Kinda... I need to get in there and glue some of it together but for the most part that is the way that it wanted to go. I still need to get some more pieces to add more hieght and a bit mor arch/ cave work to it, along with a bit more sand.

It looks very nice. I think I would add the rock from your 30 before you glue anything together.

Well the rock in the 30 is going to stay there now. My wifes biggest problem with that tank was the collection cup on a Coralife SS 65( the big gulp cup as she called it), but I picked a Remora up at my local reef club meeting and now she "likes" that tank right where it is... I picked up a few more pieces and about 10-12 lbs of rubble and did some reconfiguring of it plus added about 20 more lbs of sand. I'm waiting on some Tonga branch to come in at the LFS for some finishing pieces and I'll put up some new pics..

hey popeye, glue means perminant bonds, id suggest drilling & inserting pegs so you can lock lose rockwork together. after all rock is accounted for in the display, but before livestock edditions
