Very Nice!
I love the texture that was left, and here I was trying to smooth it out flush.
Ryan, the brushing removes the extra coco, peat, ect. off the wall

That Looks Great!!!!!
Did you leave drainage holes for the plant pots, or are they even needed?

Default Nice job!

Very nice looking tank!

Have you ever used silicone instead of polyurethane for holding the coco to the background? Does the polyurethane work better?
