more rock... it's too low..
just find a guy on craigslist thats breaking down a tank and take advantage of him... make sure he doesn't have a scale and just underquote the weight... pay 2/lb for what you "think" it weighs lol.. remember you don't pay for water weight either.

darn i didnt have a problem with LR in my 10gal
i had 25lbs in there and once i moved it in looks so much smaller
i guess i can pick up another 10-15lbs later down the road maybe in a month or two tight on cash right now saving up for Christmas presents!!

or you know what budget ballers like me do with these tanks??? stack the rock vertically off the sand bed so not only do you get better flow through the rocks, you get cool caves and aquascape, AND it fills the tank out better.

25lbs in a 20long... crappy pic and awhile back..
