I'm sure someone would've asked anyways but why the small pieces of pipe? Are they attached to the rock and put into the tank? The only thing I can think of is that you use them to hold a frag in each one.
nice! Did you experience any difficulties with removing the sand? i saw brs tv made a video about how when they removed the sand from their tank it kind of de stabalizedJust gone from this…![]()

Still a work in progress!
I did it over a period of 2 weeks with no ill effect. I siphoned the sand into a sock in the sump and removed the sock when it’s full. 2 socks a day MON-FRI. Water was recycled to display tank via return pump.nice!

Uh oh, why is oolite dreaded? I just added two bags to my new tank...
...You'll find out shortly... It's the substrate aquarists love to hate! Very fine and powdery, so it doesn't take much to stir up (and you have to spend some time on your return outlets and wavepumps to minimize this). Looks absolutely amazing, though!Uh oh, why is oolite dreaded? I just added two bags to my new tank......

WOW
lol. I found for the first few days while it's settling, turn off your wavemakers (return pump only) and use the polishing stuff that will clear the water. The first 12-18 hours is the worst - after that, smooth(er) sailing!ah yes, can confirm. my tank is now a snowglobe. ROFL
