Your pics are great and I really like the tank, it's different.

thanks alot, I was going for a trench look rockwork. I didnt want to just pile up the rocks in the back, I wanted the fish and the veiwer to be able to move around and see the entire tank from all sides.

The fish really seem to like the endless caves and hiding places.

I like that effect too. I guess I am going to have to buy another BC 29 so i can create different effects with rock work eventually. So far I really like my BC29. I have kept it stock except for adding a 5 watt jbj submariner uv sterilizer in chamber one. I just won't even do a tank without one, really makes a difference, got the uv for about $59. on ebay. I think the Biocubes are pretty nice, would love to do a red sea max but don't like the height of the stand.

I like your Aquascaping. What do you have in your clean up crew?

13 hermits and 3 snails & 1 cleaner shrimp.

Is that a cleaner wrasse?

Yes it is.

I think it looks a lot more natural than just a huge mound of rock. Nice work

Why thank you. I wanted to make it look sorta like just a peice of the ocean floor or something. I dunno, Ive always been creative like that I guess.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but that cleaner wrasse is going to die. There simply are not enough fish in that tank for it to clean and survive. They rely heavily on the slime and parasites of other fish.

Hate to tell YOU but he is the healthiest fish in my tank, has shown no signs of sickness and eats frozen shrimp along with the rest of the fish in there.

I would call youself lucky then with that wrasse, just watch out for him nipping at your corals (they have a tendency to do that)

Wrasse's dead, guess you guys were right lol. Cant find him though? Probably my CUC eat his body. He lasted about a year in the tank though.
