    My pleasure! A few more goodies and I should be ready to filler up! Just have to get off my lazy butt and get the stand finished. Also trying to figure out what substrate to go with? ANYONE chime in on SUBSTRATE. Going to have an MP-20 for flow so Im going to go with something that wont blow all over the tank.

    My favorite substrate that I've used is the CaribSea Special Grade
    Reef Sand. Small enough for fish to dig in, large enough to not get sucked up if you ever wish to siphon. They have new Ocean Direct stuff out too, don't know anyone that carries that yet.

    I purchased mine from Pet Connection in Livonia, I'm sure you could find a better price online but shipping heavy stuff like sand isn't always favorable.

    What are the inside dimensions of this beast so I can start game planning a scape!

    Also wanted to mention that there is a useful thread on RKL programming in the DIY section I started.

    Your taking to long, hurry up and get that stand stained!

    Got a little bored tonight, so I decided to crack the box open and attempt a first draft dry run.
    What do you think? This is all done naturally with no epoxy or acrylic rods!!
    This is the front left corner diagonally to the back right.

    Front right corner, to the back left. "The Piller" I had to make a killer shady spot for the Raptor's Peace Favia and other low light favias and acans. SPS up top.

    Sweet, I ended up looking up the dimensions last night of 22x22x18 right. So we should be perfect.
    The Pillar piece is kinda a love hate thing for me right now, may need to change it up to make things look more natural. The other two islands are bad as **** though!
