I agree, but I got a good deal on this rock, I took all I could get,
I built up the back a bit, I can still add more:)
Edit, also I love that little 7 gallon , I cant do no wrong in it ,
the water stays great, any info you need just ask:)

Plum any pics of the filtration that you have runing that tank? also what do you use for circulation? how many powerheads? where do you have them located? I am having a big problem with cyno and I dont know what else to do to my tank water test fine and if I add any more powerheads it just blows the sand all over the place

I have to dream to have a tank like yours. BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!
The wife would probably file divorce if I spent the money to get a tank similar to yours. I've spend so far about 2k on my 90 Gallon...Just out of curiosity...approximately, how much have you spent on everything???

Yes , Im slowing down,:D Ok ,im in at least 10Gs on the 262, so far, and thats with getting a deal on the tank, the tank reef ready with the VHO lighting, sump, filter, skimmer, denitrator, Oak stand and canopy, was 4500, then all in goodies I added,, Oh well everyone knows not a cheap hobby or addiction , call it what you like,
ok Now,Rane, I have 2 returns from my overflows,they are 1 1/4 pipe, somehow the pressure builds from the overflow to the returns , so I never get a constant flow,
its like a built in wavemaker,
It uses a Dolphin Ampmaster 3000 pump, this is all I use On my whole system,
I think you have to find the cause of the Cyno to fix it, more flow may not do the trick if you have high phosphates, or a nutrient problem, here is a pic of my sump area

I use dual 400wattt MH on a PFO Ballast, and 4 140 watt VHOs 1 white , 1 aquasun, and 2 actinics,I still playing with the MH bulbs to see which I like better 10ks or 20 ks,
