because i can control detritus better without sand. I can keep most of the detritus suspended in the water and let my filtration remove it rather then have it decompose in the tank causing nitrates. There is a 3in sand bed in my 4 gallon hob fuge alone with about 35 lbs of total rock in the system. 30 in the display and 5 in the fuge. There is a 12 gallon wetdry and a AquaC EV-180 skimmer on the system that is rated for 60-200 gallons.

Sounds like your tank is good at keeping the nitrates down. For the detritus reason, Im going to be buying a skimmer soon.

I am pretty new to this hobby, you have a good point though about keeping no sand bed. Makes sense, will keep this in mind when I get another tank.

Still not quite happy with it so i added a 2 rocks from my other tanks.
Still not happy with that either lol
anyways i snapped a few more pics and finally found out how to adjust my white balance so the pics look more realistic and not all blue. I think im gonna pull everything out this weekend and really redo it. Maybe then i will be happy with the results.
I also added a cascade 1000 canister filter to the system. Can you over filtrate a tank lol?
