I'm a little behind, no water in yet but I will by tomorrow hopefully. Added a pic of the stand I built to the first post.

Thanks, that was my intial thought when building it but I wouldn't of had a clue on making one (I'm lucky I was even able to pull off building a stand, lol) but I will be setting up a refugium in the future. Probably not for the contest though.

I changed out the sand for black Tahitian Moon Sand & changed around and added more rock. I'm pleased with this look much, much more than what I had

I honestly wanted to do black in the beginning but already had white LS so I thought I'd just try it but was very unsatisfied with it's look. Now my husband likes it so much he wishes his 90g was black
