Nice! I prefer dimmer lit tanks so I think it's good.
 
You have a beautiful group of fish in there :) I really like your stock.

I have one suggestion as far as the aquascaping goes... I find that fake plants look a lot more natural when they are grouped together in certain areas of the tank (peaking out from behind rocks or driftwood, clustered in the corners, etc ) instead of being so spaced out and evenly distributed throughout the tank. I think another piece of driftwood would look good as well. Other than that, I really like what you've done :)

Looking good! I agree - a couple of large pieces of dw with small footprints should work well in your tank.

Ya, i wish it was wider than tall, but i couldn't beat the price. I only paid $660 for this complete setup. YA i do want to get a branchy piece of driftwood and have it come down from the top.

I agree, looks great like it is! Only thing I saw that i would change is the texas holey rock(or whatever type rock it is)

Thanks, ya the holey rock was the only thing i had laying around, so i thought i would add it for now, I'm still on the hunt for more driftwood and rocks:D.
