    Bigman I'm sure he well be happy. ONe observation though is, I would not lay the eggcrate on the bottom of the tank. It makes a whole bunch of little boxes for detritus to get trapped in to feed algae down the road. There is no way for critters to bourgh through the substrate to help keep it from packing with detritus and if you run a SSB, you well have no way to stir it. I would put the rock on the bottom of the tank on the glass. Some people use that starboard for bottom lining, its the stuff cutting boards are made from. I have used eggcrate in a BB setup to build the reef on, but cut 1/2" pvc with a cross in one end to snap onto the eggcrate and a double taper on the other end so thet stood on 2 pointy tips on the bottom. I think mine were a couple inches high. I have laid rock just on the bottom and never had a problem.
