I love the dimensions of a 65 gallon, deep enough to be flexible with the aqua scape. I have a 56 gallon and I kind of wished that I had gone for the 65.

I like your aquascape but I would squish it together a little more so you are not so close to the glass on both sides. When film algae grows there you will have a hard time easily removing it.

It looks like a fun build. Any idea what livestock you will get?
