You’re right it does seem shallow. How many gallons and high is it again?
When I saw your tank in the outside pictures I imagined myself striking a pretty pose but now I can only think of lying face to the ground.

I have a Reef Tank again.
I spy 3 tangs .

I'm trying to understand where the light is coming from. My brain hurts.

Looks like you could fit MOAR rock in there if you want. Always good .

How tf are you getting the sump underneath now? That stands too pretty. Super happy brotha

You pose a good argument. We need MOAR rock. Surprised it’s very minimal.

It has imo the perfect amount of rock. If you look at how it was built, it's function built first. The entire thing is a hollow shell of caves. There's probably 200 lbs of rock in the tank and another hundo in the sump/ frag tank.

Just as before there will not be a sump under the big tank. 100g Sump lives in my office which is behind the wall to the tank. Electronics live on this side, wet/mechanical lives on the other side.

This is kinda the idea I had for when I set the cade back up. My hold up was caution regarding the sand stagnating in the caves - esp since I don't want another burrower & I'm anti siphon lol thinking some goats might help control that though.

There will always be dead spots in the sand under a traditional aquascape. I'm hoping with the wide tunnels and access, plus good flow, there should be enough happening there to keep it from getting too nasty as I also don't clean the sand.
