Nice work! Personally I wouldn't go with the purple stain. I know people consider it to be "reef safe" when its in your plumbing, but I would be worried about the amount that would be in tank after staining a lot of rock. Naturally coloring up the rock also gives you the benefit of allowing green, pink, purple and red coralline algae to come in and give color diversity. My LFS has some really nice artificial shelf rock, but its so solidly purple that I would never buy it.

Been so busy with work and everything. Tank is done! Just sitting in the garage waiting for me to get so free time to install. I started putting my DIY rock in me current 75g and it looks great I still need to make about 100# more rock I think we will see once I install. And yes pic I love new ideals do be scared to jack my build ease share.

Why choose this salt?

From everything I have read and I have use 3 other salt brands the Red Sea takes it hands down. Have had high cal with others some low ph and others testing out the fresh rodi salt mix. Plus I think it's one of the Most recommended mixes out there.
