Finally after months of planning and building I have my dream tank!! Did the rockwork etc just a few days ago...
This was an accumulation of 2 small tanks we put together in one big tank

Now I have so much room u get to figure out what to stock in it :) this is gonna be fun!!!

Was the two contents of the tanks i think mate
 
Thanks guys! Yes it was just the contents of the 2 tanks. I had a 30g ang a 45g and really wanted something bigger, so I bought this tank off cl, plummed the sumps ourselves, built an overflow, built a fuge and here we are :)

It's funny, when you look at the rockscape you can tell which rock came from which tank (some has a lot of reds and purples from coralaline, the other is pretty white!)

We suspended the rock mainly so we can have a big sandbed...now I need cool stuff to put in the sand!!
 
That is one of the best salts I've seen. Very creative aquascaping. Well done! (y)

We built some plexi shelves on the left side and mounted starting there and then some zip ties in the back :)
 
Thanks guys!! I bought 3 anthius fish yesterday just to add some color and have something to swim in that massive space :)
 
That rock work is fantastic. Did you epoxy or super glue the shelves in place? I want to do that sooooo bad now.

I know, I've been struggling for a long time to get my LR just right and you go and show me this. Now I have to start all over haha.
 
definitely unique aquascaping. what will you put in the dark areas though? lots of sun corals and dendros i imagine.
