here are some new pics. i just added a new sump and PCI skimmer and am very happy with it. right now the fish are in QT for ich treatment, but i still decided to take some pics because the water is very clear and the lighting is really looking good right now. anyone in the area is more than welcome to come check out my tank, just let me know when.

no, sorry that is a purple condi anemone. it is a very nice color and is usually much larger, taking up the whole corner of the tank.

thanks for the comments. i am really starting to like the way the tank looks, and can't wait for things to mature a little bit.

Very nice, like the way you stacked the rock I like to be able to see front to back thru out the rock. learned my lesson the hard way not to pile it up. let me know if you are up in port i'll frag a few sps for you

how did you learn the hard way? i am constantly worried about a rock falling over and breaking the tank. i dont have them secured, but they are "fairly" stable.

Didnt mean it that way first time I set up my tank i didnt allow for water flow thru the rock and a few other learning curves that led to thick hair algae(2"-3") deep in the rock pretty much covering everything

Which PCI skimmer are you using?

I love how your tank looks. As others have said, very nice color variety.
