Well finally! Rearranged some of the rock structure and placed corals in their new home. I actually was looking for a frag and have not been able to find it. My pearl berry frag! Since the water is still a little milky I am hoping that in a few days I will be able to see a better reflection against the glass in the back of tank. At that point I hope I can find it!
I added a juvenile wantanebi angel.
The fish in the aquarium are:

1 yellow tang
1 blue regal tang
1 kole tang
1 orange shoulder tang
2 pyrimad butterflies
1 possom wrasse (I saw this one today)
1 mystery wrasse
1 yellow belly damsel
1 barlett anthias
1 flameback angel
1 black/white clown
1 wantanebi angel

This should be good for now.
Any how on to the pics of the tank. Excuse the fact that the water is still milky in appearance.

Well guys I think I am almost finished! Just a few more touches and I will be done.
The water is FINALLY cleared up and pics are to follow.

I am not sure what to do with the koralia power heads. I would like to place them so that the corals get the best over all flow. So far my current placement makes the sand bed blow onto the corals that I placed at the bottom.
Any suggestions for better placement?

I still have some coral epoxying to do but mostly done.

I have connected lights to timers so that I don't need to be home to turn the lights on.

Next in the plans are the following that I have already just need to install:

1. Moonlight install
2. ATO install
3. Refugium install
4. Trim for bottom of stand
5. Matching trim for canopy

Here are FTS from different angles.
Let me know what you think.










Once corals have had time to acclimate to their new surroundings I will take pics of them individually.

No problem. You're the one drip-feeding me eye-candy, I should be thanking you. I love threads with loads of pictures documenting a process and showing all the goodies.

When I set up my tank early next year, I'll come straight back and reciprocate.

[Acronuts]

Ok you're on! I can't wait!
