    Moved to the correct section.

    Looks like you have a nice start. I agree with Guido, check those rocks.

    Can I ask why the power head (koralia..sp) is aimed at the top of your water.
    I would think with evaporation and it being so close to the top you're gonna run the risk of it running dry at some point.

    I may be wrong here, but if I were you I'd move that powerhead down to mid point and aim it at the back of your tank (assuming that spray bar is cocked in such a manner that it aims at an angle like I have mine).

    -->Filstar rocks! I see you have the spray bar..that will defin. give you some nice water movement.

    Rock work, always cautious with that in saltwater (I had mine adhesed together) ...It makes it hard to do partials without toppling it...unless its really locked in there good.

    On a side note..it's looking great!

    well the powerhead was pointed that way cause thats what they told me to do at LFS but i was thinking of moving it i have moved it up and down to see which way i get better movement that was just when i was taking the pic going to get some more rock tomorrow so it may be all different tomorrow lol
    i just had a question what kinds of things should i see with using the live rock there is a bunch of plants growing on there but not sure what will or could grow there?
