OK as some of you already know the plan for this tank was to have a shallow beach front and side with the middle half of the tank BB. What I came up with was to build a 1 1/2'' wall using eeg crate, crussh coral, gorilla glue for ceramic, and black foam GreatStuff used for ponds and such. Here are some pics. Tell me what you guys think of the idea.

Well start with pics of the supply for the project.

Here are the walls set up with crush coral to show the beach area.

Got bored so I worked on the rock. There is about 200lbs maybe less of rock. I really like the rock work. I hope I can get it in the tank looking like this but we all know how that goes.

Here is pics of the 40b after about a week from the move.

looks good!
I like the final pic of the rocks!!!
Hope you can get it all in the tank that way!!

Wow all that stuff is going to look so tiny in the 270...:lol:

 

[roscoe]

I'm hoping it will go in the tank that way too. There is so much caves and plenty of swimming room inside the rock work as well as the outer rock work. Getting closer!! I'll be picking up the stand and canopy this Sunday!
