[QUOTE="djs4him, post: 10564337, member: 198393"] Beautiful. And thank you for the advice .. definitely well-noted. Yes, once I get a quote on this custom overflow solution, I'll have to decide where that puts me in terms of continuing with this tank, or converting this tank to freshwater (or selling it) and getting a different one altogether for my reef. I was literally just telling my wife we need more rock lol. She agrees. She wants to get some shelf rock and build different tiers and layers. I want to ensure we have nooks and crannies and tunnels for water flow, hiding spots, and low-light areas. We just need to get some ideas from fellow hobbyists. Your hardscape looks beautiful with plenty of variety and diversity and character. For sure I'll be adding another powerhead or two to improve flow. Do you run higher flow towards the top with lesser towards the bottom of the tank? Or staggered? I need to figure out placement - which I'm assuming will depend on the final hardscape once finished. Which lights are you running? I love how they are very low-profile which is exactly what I'm looking for. Since this is a peninsula in our living room, I don't really want tall lights with lots of bleed into the room. Especially if we want to watch a movie, I'd prefer most of the light projecting inside the tank rather than out into my house. Not to mention the energy wasted when setup that way. [/QUOTE]
