First off, congratz on the set up!!!

Personally ... only thing I would do differently ... is use slightly smaller pieces of Live rock and not quite as compact ... for me I like to have as much flow going through the rock structures as I can to keep food and poop from getting trapped in there, which can cause trouble later on down the road! Again, it's just my opinion.

But other then that ... it's a very cool set up. :)

Thanks, I understand the build up thats why I have another Power head behind the rock setup. For that reason.

I left space in the back and placed a power head to keep some flow. I just added some cheoto to kick off the tank. Cant wait to add coral and other life.
