nice rock work....it will be hard for you to arrange corals since you have to do it from the back....

Are the tie raps UV resistant? Otherwise they'll break after some time.

WWodyz - I love the cliff hanging out and the steep edges in the lagune as well, gives a good deep look and funny coral placements.

ivan1407 - Yes they are, im an electrician so they are the best i could find and extremely strong !

Redbellyjx - Thanks and i will
