I know  Mark Peterson has made one before. Im sure others have but I would try contacting him to see how he did it. I remember I got advise from him on how to do it a few years back but i do not remember.

A little late but maybe this will help someone.
Yes, a suspended reef looks cool and is very efficient for water flow and LS effectiveness. Utah Rock is great for this purpose since it is easily drilled and zip tied to a frame that can become almost invisible to the viewer. Smile
