Really nice aquascaping. I have a 125 and have something similar with the islands, yours are impressive though. You use any acrylic rods to keep it all in place?

Thanks! No no acrylic rods or putty. just took a long time to find rocks that would interlock one way or another. and all rock have no wobble and are really solid in place. So if i decide to redo the scape i can.

Thanks That was the idea. i cant stand the look of the overflows. but i got this tank in 04. was cool then lol.
