Incredible build so far. Good on you for taking such good care of your mother, I hope that her recovery continues.
I think the most critical things with rockwork are:
1. Of course, the looks, and remembering that less is more
2. The flow. Try not to build lots of walls that will eliminate flow, unless you want a lot of powerheads.
Speaking of powerheads, where do you plan to mount yours? I have a cube tank that is viewable from all 4 sides and I have a heck of a time locating the powerheads so that they dont disrupt the view badly (vortechs cannot go close to the surface, or the substrate).
Keep up the great work! Please dont skimp on sump/filtration/equipment pics, those are my favorite part.
Oh one idea too, once the emergency drain pipe enters the uniseal on the sump, end it there so that it ends above water level, that way you can hear it when it is flowing.
I like the vectra L1 a lot for a return, works pretty well, though there are other awesome options too.
Will you use a substrate or go bare-bottom?
What kind of corals do you like? SPS? LPS? all?
