Looks great. Are your lights adjustable? Up and down.

 

[Krish]

Nice!! Make sure and get a shot when it clears up! Looks good though!!

 

[Rothany]

sadly no =( , but I did put a piece of wood inside the ghetto fixture lol so my leds are mounted as low as possible.. Im sure I can lower it if I get longer aircraft cable.

Ok,so woke up And my water was clear. I got my aquascaping done, added a spilt in my return,for a water fall type of effect. I was aiming towards a volcano type of look . IT can out great. enjoy the photos taken with my phone =)

not sure if you can see it,but water is flowing in the rocks

Wow that is so cool, with adding everything like that you didn't have a mini cycle or anything?

 

[Rothany]

Nope no cycle. Water levels are normal. 15 gallons was adding on top of the exsiting water. Crossing fingers it stays no cycle lol
