I like it! The only thing that bugs me is the powerheads in the tank if you could lose those for say one sea swril it would give it a cleaner look.
however it looks nice and is coming along great.

Ya I dont really like them either, when I buy some more LR they will be hidden better, but Im thinking someday to re plumb and get a mag9.5 and 3/4" sea swirl.

pretty nice setup I have a 50 gallon (like a 40 but a little taller) Your tank would look very nice if you had a few more pieces of Live rock to aquascape with. Soon you will run out of places to put corals in there! I also dont like the look of powerheads, I have mine plumbed from the return with 2 outlets just breaking the top of the water on each side, making the water kind of go in a circular motion around the tank.

oh ya, that is definety on the list, this sunday I should be getting some. The far left back side is going to be filled in with like large rubble pieces, then there is going to be a another bridge in the big rock stucture for about 4 or 5 sps.
