I took my 150 down, and set up the 220 in its place.

Open is definitely good and the aquascaping almost makes it look like an underwater sculpture garden!

I've never seen a rock shaped like the one in the middle (that forms the circle). Very cool!

well there are 5 rocks total and three to make the circle. the one large rock is a fresh water rock that i aquired bout 9 yrs ago. it has been in my 150 that long and i transfered it over to the 220. it is a good visual and the fish seem to get through it ok. When it was in the 150 i had it on the left side and the clowns laid thier eggs inside the "elbow" of the rock. Now they like it on the right side of the tank, in the cubbie hole on the left, next to the other big rock. thank you for your input
