Added new piece of driftwood

[Convict2161]

So as many know I'm VERY OCD with my tank and I picked up this new branching piece of DW from my local guy. I played around with it trying to find a place where I liked it. So here it is! Lemme know what ya think! Still up in the air if I'm gonna keep it in but right now I like it.

My tank I topless so I let the end stick out of the tank, I think it gives it a pretty cool effect.

I have to admit I like the look of that manzanita style DW coming in from the top. Kind of like low overhanging branches going into a lake.

So I bought the marineland led double bright 36 to 48 inch for my tank and I tried it out. I'm not too happy with it. When it's all stretched out to 48 it is very flimsy. Might have to return it and get the bigger one. It's just so much more money. It sucks.
