You'd be surprised. If you look up the definition of anal, Spectra's name comes up.

Well it only took half a beer :lol: and verified with a tape................. 2 13/16 off each side ;) 

 

Not sure about the arm.......it takes up a lot of room and may want to run a skimmer......

I have leaned towards not using the arm. That mount is way to bulky.

Not really bulky and love he look just to much hanging in that center section.......I also like the fact you can adjust the height on it.

Well hard to tell in the pic but I noticed the light was shifted to one side :rolleyes: my anal side said move it and well its now centered...............

 

Just a quick tutorial..............I have been in the construction industry for 30 years...........everything I look at needs to look correct or square......I had a customer watch me one time and asked me why did you not put it level.......well I told her look at it and tell me what you see......level did not match what it was next to but out of level and its all pleasing to the eye......yeah call it what you want but I want to see it all blend together ;) 

 

I am always lining crap up and well it sucks :lol: I see things the average person probably could care less about but it bugs the living shit out of me :rolleyes:

Well its wet but I am not to happy with it..........:( waiting to see how it looks when it clears up. This small of a tank and well all the rock I had was bigger pieces. Kind of knocked them down but just not feeling it.

 

Guess I should have been drinking when I figured out the rock work :rolleyes:
