I finally got my 27g cube up and running tonight. Its been a long process but I am glad to be that much closer to adding livestock. What do you guys think of my aquascape?

I like it! Cool rock. Do you have enough space between the rock and the glass on the right side? The algae will grow there and it will drive you nuts if you can't get to it with and algae scraper.

Please make sure the top rock on the right is secure. Once you start putting in corals that rock may fall if you are not careful. Other than that looks great. The thing I did not do (and wish I did) is drill holes for coral frag plugs. You will need to secure corals to something. Just a thought that may help you in the future.

I made sure the mag float fits. It barely fit, but it fits. :lmao:

The bottom of the rock on the top right is just like the top of it. It has a large hole. The two rocks basically fit together like a peg in a hole. I made sure it wouldn't budge.
