hmm i think i will do it so that there is gsp everywhere on the walls, and then a rock in the middle of the sand bed with zoas and stuff. Not sure though

Now it's cycling ;) 4lbs of dry rock and I added a tiny rock from my other tank. Also added a sand dollar i found at the beach.. just for fun!

Nice! I’ll be following along.
keep an eye on that sand dollar. I placed one in a tank years ago and it melted down pretty quickly. I think once they dry out in the sun, they fall apart once they go back in the water.
I see you’re in Fremont. Fremont CA?
We transplanted to TN from Concord CA years ago.
