Hey, zebvance, really nice tank BTW, but quick question, u were talkin about a powerhead to get the waste off the sand...would that stir up the sand and get it in the filters also? I have two HOB filters on my 72 Gal with sand, and I was thinking about this same thing the other day, but don't want to kick up sand into my filters. Would u place the powerhead down tawords the bottom or what? Never used a powerhead, but thought about the idea before....

Yes that is exactly what I want it for, I dont think that it would kick up my sand to much because It is very heavy sand. It depends on the type of sand you have. I was also going to point it toward that corner from about 4 feet away in the tank so that the current is just strong enough to move the lighter waste of of the top of the sand but not strong enough to move the sand around.
 
Hey guys just a update for ya. I rescaped the tank, but im not sure about the rocks. So I got a couple of big river stone boulders, and I think Im going to redo the scape to make it look more natural I am also about to get a SWEET custom stand built.
