Are you going to level that more?

It is off a little bit. Once I am done testing, I will level.

 

[grifter]

Wondering. it is the floor that is slightly unlevel. Should I just leave it alone.

No, it usually is the floor. Definitely level between the stand and the floor.

Finished the rock scape. What do you think? Need to finish plumbing once the final piece arrives then water.

I like all the open spaces. Usually I find tanks more appealing when the scape is higher on one side than the other. Just a personal preference I guess. But I think it looks good.

It is a little taller on the right side. When I try to make one side bigger it looked like I just clumped a piece of rock to the structure. I also like the open look thanks
