i've seen some people make tunnels with PVC pipe. I think its a good idea as long as u dont make the tunnels too long

if your going sps i would take half of it out, 'cause i think they look much better with open spaces (but some ppl think my tank needs more rock)....i guess its all in the eye of the beholder.....what makes you happy is what is going to be the best thing in the long run

I actually really like the look of it as of now. It has alot more "holes, passegways" than you can see in the pic. One of the reasons I did keep all of it is because it's such nice rock. Another thing is that I took out about 50-60lbs that I didn't like. If anyone needs some base rock I will sell it. Some branches, some base etc. Thanks for all your opinions, keep em coming.

Yeah, everything is cool, I asked and everyone told me. It probably is a little much, but it will stay for awhile.
Thanks monti didn't know anyone liked my tank like that. All the frags are doing good. I just added my ca reactor, as you know, and everything should start doing alot better. Do you have any closer up pics?

It is great isn't it. I am hoping everything will get better and better. I am definitly getting better growth since the new protein skimmer, and my alk/ca levels are really getting good. I have the ca reactor set at 60ml ph, and 30 bubbles per hour, and my ca isn't coming up at all, but the alk is about 8 now, but was at 9 the other day. Should I up the dosage?
Jann, the rock I want to sell will be dry, you know that? I will get a pic tommorrow if possible.

Monti, sorry, I didn't mean that I meant per minute (all the pumps are gph, confusing, lol). And it is actually about 32 bubbles.
