I like the look, Brian, but it's hard to tell how close it is to the glass? Can you clean the glass (between the rocks and the glass)? Other than that, I like the layout.

Setting that tank up now huh? Looks great to me!

Keep posting the pictures when you get it up and running. What lights are you going to throw on top of it? What are you going to put in it?

Take er easy

I'd get the 250, fairly deep tank and besides the good bulbs are much cheaper for 250s.
