Absolutely gorgeous tank! Love the natural looking light and colors!
Some amazing photography as well! What kind of camera are you using
 
I looked at this

Then did a double take on this

Then looked at the tank pics

"Ahh, now I get it. That's why"
Yeah, there's zero dead spots in the tank. Having a cube of this size is so tricky with flow, the two Mp10s are on the bottom pointing at each other so they push up and then under the rock. I usually have almost nothing to siphon out on the bottom during a water change.
 
Looking to get a Cade 600(mm) Cube which is 23.6 inches so this beautiful tank is inspirational. Thanks
