So I put this up in the market like a week ago, but after cleaning it out it really made me want to start up again. my other tank is 55+20 gal but this will be as the title states (30 gallon cube :proud:).

I wanted to do something similar to a bare bottom but don't like how the glass reflects. Also I want to protect the glass because im very clumsy and don't want to drop and chip the glass. SO Im going to tile the bottom

The goals of this aquarium is to be sps dominant, but i also like zoas, lps(acans,brains,hammers,torchs), and shrooms, so the tank wont be only sps. As for fish I am for sure doing clowns and fire fish. does anyone have suggestions for fish?!?!?!

Also should i use photobucket to upload, when i see old threads with the broken link and no picture makes me upset, so i may just upload straight to scr or do the link.

Nice. I have the same tank and am trying to plan it out unlike my other tank that I just threw together.

Did you have any issues with the outflows being so high on the back wall? they seem to be a bit high and am thinking of replacing the stock fixtures with loc-lines.

Yea they do swivel a bit but I got locline. One thing don't do a y split with the pump that comes with the tank the flow is somewhat pathetic.
