Final Hardscape Complete

After some tinkering and sleeping on it for 2 days I think I'm finally DONE!! Hardscape looks satisfying to my artist self.. so here we go!!!

Final Front View with extra pebbles

Added more height to the back on this pick

 All looks good BUT i think more height in the back would give more depth

Next is planting.....

Hardscape test with Stones

Ok I got all the remaining items today so I began with hardscaping ideas and this is where im going. Got some unlikley shape stones that seems to fit.. coming together nicely..

Harsdcape testing with Manzanita

Testing the Manzinita Stump and connected branches, had to use a Stainless Steel Screw to hold the main pieces together. Took some work to do but here is the results

Light Wired and Connected.. Clean & Seemless

Finally got around to connecting the lights... I used wire covers to eliminate the ugly LED wires that are often seen dropping along the back of the aquarium..  Looks very clean!!
