Just curious, if you are going to make the two tanks look like one then how are you going to cover the join?

Setup looks well thought through 8)

Alls i did was clean the two side that were going together, placed the tanks on the stand, butt them together and then siliconed the front top and back seam so no dirt could get in between them....it IS noticable that they are two seperate tanks but they are just Mounted in the wall as if they were one piece.....it really just looks like two viewing panes on one large tank....were you not able to see how it looks in the photos???
