Very nice tank so far. I like the rock work in the large tank. I have 3 smaller individual Islands of rocks in mine and 2 of them are connected by a flat piece of rock to make an underpass......
What lights are you running

In the 225G I have 3 250W metal halide with 8 T5HO....although I Absolutely HATE the metal halides I have right now(make everything look green and yellowish)....I am going to be buying better bulbs soon (they are soooooo expensive though)
