Looks great. I noticed the pieces but you will def not notice them after a few months of aging in the tank.
Make sure you silicone all the edges thoroughly to minimise the chances of waste making its way back there and rotting away.

Ha ha there made out of foam mate, just check the early posts above to see what it looked like. There glued on with A LOT of silicon (5 tubes) and now im waiting for it to dry. Cant wait to get it in side but i have to fill and refill it like 6 times before anything first so i don't get any major ph swings.

here are some updated pics and got my new discus yesterday so they havent been in the tank long. Im very happy with the way the tank has turned out and there is algea starting to grow on the background which will give it more of a natural affect.
