Nice tank Buddha. Viewable from three sides looks good.

The black sand also makes for an interesting look. I know a lot of people have thought about using black sand but I think yours is the first tank I have actually seen it in.

As you get more corals and the tank matures make sure you keep posting pics. I'm really interested to see how the black sand looks over the long haul.

Whoa! Black sand! Cool!

Seriously I like the black sand. I too am thinking of trying black sand. How long has you tank been set up?

It is 1 month 4 days old. I am taking it really slow. My last tank had problems because I slammed to many corals and inverts after the cycle. This will be my master piece!
