Re: New 90 gallon saltwater tank

I thought it would be more fun to add a little here and there when I started my tank. After seeing setups like yours I almost wish I would have done it all at once. It wasn't the money either, just wanted an excuse to visit the LFS. Looks great.

Re: New 90 gallon saltwater tank

I left 4 inches from the base of the rocks to the glass at the bottom, including the sides. Then it tapers back from there. I left room for the fish to swim behind it, but I cannot clean behind the rocks, is that a problem?
