I really like this tank because of its clean lines and simplicity. I tried many ways of making the stock hood work, but they all had the dreaded spotlight effect that Edge's are known for. My simple diy hood eliminates that and has a clean floating effect that still allows quite a bit of top down viewing. I cant take good pictures but the red planet frag has colored up crazy in this tank, it had green flesh w/ red polyps. In my other system it is only red. Sometimes I think people can go overboard with their setups (me included) and can forget how nice it can be to have a small nearly maintenance free tank.
