Nice job of laying out your rockwork. Plenty of swimming room for fish and lots of places for corals if you chose to go that way.
What are your long term stocking plans?
How are you cycling?
Have you thought about something on the back to hide the wiring?
You sound excited about this which is a great thing.
Good Luck!

Great looking tank. I would skip the DSB until you are sure that you are going to have a nitrate problem with the setup you have now and in the future. A DSB is only beneficial if your bioload is high enough to utilize it. Plus 4-6 inches of sand takes up alot of space. Light feeding and plenty of live rock could very well make a DSB useless for the purpose that it was intended for. Tank is looking really good so keep up the good work. Do you fed your fish garlic?

Jumpfrog-
Long term plans include corals, clown fish, clean up crew, and enemenies. Maybe in the distant future some other fish. I am cycleing with Damsels. Yes I want to cover the back with solid blue. I am very excited , thanks for the reply.

How about if I make it deeper behind the rocks? I might not need it though as I dont plan on having many fish. Thanks

Garlic? Ive never heard of that. My fish are blood sucking vampires, wont that be bad for them?

some believe garlic or garlic duribatives are good for preventing disease & for waning off parasites; specifically for preventing/treating ich; depends who you ask; do not remember hearing many negatives about it; some people simply add it when they feed the tank
