Hi, like the sand in all your tanks, that rock pile must have taken ages to put together, your shell dweller tank is my favourite, nice pics, check out pics of my tank in journals and photo thread if you want to see a tank that is the opposite of yours and full of clutter, lol.

i thought heater had to be at an angle to maintain a good temp ?

Nope, you can put it at an angle to discourage fish from resting on it, but as long as it's near the flow from the filter you'll get even heating.
