DSB - How much to hide with molding?
My tank will be inwall. I am wondering how much of a 5" DSB I should cover with molding. I was thinking of covering 3" and letting 2" show. What would look best?

really? I think it looks kinda cool having all of that wierd stuff going on in there. I'm going to leave most of mine showing unless I change my mind later.

Personally I would only hide about 2" and leave 3" show. I think it's very interesting to see what's going on in the sandbed.

You could go behind the wall and look at it.
