Thank you collie man! The light is solarmax MH 150w 20000k.
I really want to try a NPS tank, but i will probably end up with mix reef.

Sorry, i sold them already, besides it will be very expensive to ship it there:)

Now, here's my new cube!

Very nice rock work. I am building an acrylic AIO. I had the same idea of hanging rock from the back and one side of the tank the same way you did. I know the tank is glass. Is the return divider acrylic? if so how did you hang your rock? Could you post more (closer pics of this part of your tank. Thanks.
Looks Great

Yes, the internal overflow box is acrylic with glass inside the box. Here's a picture of the tank (back view) when I was building it.

I slowly attached each rock using aqua epoxy clay and it took me 8 hours to finish the rockscape.

Absolutely beautiful tank. Love how clean the setup is. Truly amazing for only being up and running for 1 year.
