Seems to be fine. I do find tiny pieces of foam floating in the sump sometimes. I think the urchins chew it off.

It has 2 snowflake eels, a fuzzy dwarf lion, 2 spot tang and a CBB in it. I didn't have much success growing macros in it though.

I put the pipe down, glued it in with the foam and stuck rock bits into the foam.

Nutrients too low for macro? I can't grow chaeto and I have to dose nitrate and phosphate to keep cheysophytes algae away

Is the pope just a straight piece or are there some bends in it?

They grow beautifully for a few months, then fade away over a few months.
The pipe is a straight section with 45 degree fittings on each end.

So it has two entrances? Cool

I'm thinking of 2-3 smaller caves. Just not sure if the animals would prefer to build there own though.

I can't really take that risk with 7" of miracles mud in the back- I can't imagine that holds together well enough not to be a constant cave-in hazard
