My cube scape when I was proud of my tank. Unfortunately life got in the way and I lost most of my corals. I restarted the tank last month with new rock and sand, but I went with a more traditional scape this time. I wanted more rock in the system for more mounting areas and stability, both structurally and bacterially.

Miracles in Glass 24 x 30 x24 Starfire glass, bonsai sculpture by West Mariculture, light lavender coraline covering the bottom. Pink and purple coralline starting on the tree. Needs to grow out to become a beautiful tree!

Do you use rocks in sump for biological filtration? Since those sculptures doesnt offer much pores for bacteria to grow on correct? Cool scape!

Bacteria will always grow and find it's way. No live rock used. I went the live rock and sand route, caused too many problems, didn't work for me.

Is that an Artfully Acrylic lid? I'm debating about purchasing one. How has it been thus far?
