Thank you. I decided that if I'm going to have a high-end brackish or full marine aquarium, it should have color.

Cool! Looks like he/she likes to perch on that sand-dollar :)

Adding a backing would upgrade the appearance by hiding the cords.

That was my very first thought. I think fish feel mor comfortable with a background too.

And spend a few dollars for some background adhesive. The difference over just taping it on is night and day. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/p ... atid=18280

You might also hang the heater diagnally under the filter with part of the lower heater near the filter intake.

Thank you so much for the tips! I am currently looking for a background. I never thought about putting the heater under the filter intake.
I really appreciate any and all advice and suggestions.

I have added a temporary background to my GSP tank. I have plans for a different background, but need to get supplies.
(I haven't moved the heater yet, but I will.....)

Ok, so..... I'm still working on the background. I really like the blue, and how it reflects up into the water. Here's my latest idea/attempt:

He does look tiny for now (about 2"), but that means he has a lot of room to swim about and grow into. :D
