That is the same tank I have and I originally bought it to be a seahorse tank. It is a great footprint for a herd of 4-6 ponies if you have a sump.Whatever happened to 'scaping the back wall of a tank? About 10-12 years ago, it was a thing to zip-tie rock to eggcrate, and either cut away the crate between rocks to create the illusion of a deep crevice, or fill in the spaces with pond foam, and cover it with sand?
I'm setting up a 56 gal tall for my seahorses, and was thinking of sticking slices of Marco Rock base rock onto the back glass with lumps of reef putty/aquarium silicone to hold it 1/4-1/2" off the glass for flow.
Feedback, please?
Just make sure that when you have the marco rock on the back wall that : 1. The food can not be trapped by it. With seahorses it is absolutely necessary that all food is flushed from the tank after they eat to be filtered out or they will succumb to bacterial infections. 2. With the fairly high flow (10Xs - 20Xs turnover) that the seahorses will not be swept into the rock). If those issues are considered it should be a beautiful tank!
