    Hey bros!

    My cabinet and 6ft tank has finally arrived! Spent yesterday buying substrate and getting the hardscape in.

    Will not be able to add fauna/flora/water till my lights come in.

    Please comment on how I can improve it in the meantime!

    Quite rarely see a 6 ft tank. This is going to be a huge and time-consuming project. Putting in water alone is no small task but once completed is going to be a magnificient sight - like watching a 6ft LCD screen.

    Looks longish, it's a 6X1.5?

    The pointy rock on the right side looks out of place to me. I will be good if you add in more smaller rocks as sacrificial rocks.
    Left side looks alright, but seems a little empty.

    Hi everyone! Spent today buying and planting. What a back breaking job, but its finally done! Well partially. Couldn't buy enough background plants as most of the shops were out (after i bought them all) haha. Will add more along the way. Anyway still waiting for everything to settle down first. Will get better pics once the water clears up.

    I currently have 3 x 15 watt LEDs. What would you recommend I do. My lights are just cut off from the pic.
