I'd vote black as well, IMO it's a better backdrop for highlighting coral colors

I should have painted mine....
I now regret not doing so as I see the wires an stuff.
Hopefully scoreline will take over the back.

Lol, you asked me about those dots on my last build few years ago Joe, anyway this tank has a multi pane bottom, it is silicone between glass panes.

It will, just takes time
I guess black it isimo I'd do a black background Mark...great contrast and will go better with the olive green walls imo...
Really looking great so far my friend
Thank you buddy, trying to give you run for your money, your tank is spectacular !!!
more like Exotic haha
Question : is there a reason why the light isnt exactly in the center and a little towards the back of the tank ?
~ safe to assume its on purpose as you will be placing a lot of lps in the front and sps in the back portion of the tank ?
I like my rocks to be towards the back and leave open space in front . So my light is center over the rockwork. It will cover any corals I want to grow, but have no need for light over the sand bed in front. Plus this way my front glass stays free of algae longer .

Any plans for a top? Or just going to try and avoid "jumpers"?
Looking forward to seeing your plans for the front right sand area

Wow what a fantastic job! Do you intend to run the ATI cord through the wall? Also is that one massive rock?! I'm a huge fan of the scape, I love how open it is

Thanks
There will be screen for sure, it will be done as I had before, suspended inside tank, so not visible. As far as aquascape , this is it. I always like open sand space for fish to swim. No reaal plans for that side, with the exception of putting few tube anemones there in sand.Any plans for a top? Or just going to try and avoid "jumpers"?

Thank you, yes, I will run cords and any piping through the wall. This is one big rock, about 70 Ibs.
