This is my minimalist 100 gallon, 5 foot long tank. At least it seems like it is.

The center 'island' is what I call my sea anemone island. It's totally surrounded my gravel. The sea anemones seem to be perfectly happy there since they are getting equal amounts of flow from the return pumps on both ends of the tank. I'm using a Tunze 6040 DC pump on each end of the tank to create a wave effect throughout the tank as well.

Each of the 3 'islands' are made up of base live rock place in a sort of circular pattern, with rock then piled on top of the base rock. This created a cave in the bottom of each of the 3 'islands'.
