Very cool, I like all the shells at the bottom. I did that too and the best part in about 4-5 months they will look rugged and worn and very ocean-floor like.

I also dig how your sand dips down in the middle front of the tank.

Where do you get your shells? I keep land hermit crabs and I'm always on the lookout for places to get shells. I get mine at craft stores.

Looking good. I've got the craft shells too, I got smaller ones since my hermits are all smaller. I rinsed them well and boiled them for about 5-10 minutes before using them to get off anything nasty... no problems. They are starting to look aged, they give the bottom a sea floor type look.
