I got it from Dan(Dano) I think he said he originally brought it with him from Florida 10 years ago when he moved here and it was a small frag.

Here are some tank shots:



Left side


Right side

Here are some new shots of corals and fish, I will get a full tank shot as well up soon.

looks very good thanks for your trial I probably had a better move from reading this I lost one clown that went over the overflow and got caught in the plumbing it was a Rods Onyx so I am not happy but I feel that I had a very successful move and have now changed things so that hopefully I dont loose more fish in the plumbing

Thanks Jeff

That's bothering it's flesh against the edge. The flesh of Turbinaria ordinarily wraps clear down around the stalk so placing it on a couple rocks and having it face up a little more than it is, will benefit it. Also too much clutter down in front of the left side rockwork. Sorry. I don't mean to offend. Just calling it as I see it, for your long term benefit.

I moved the Turbinaria so it was sitting up I was trying to figure out how to get him up but hadn't had the chance to do it.
I am guessing you think I just have all my rock stacked and there isn't any flow under but that's not true actually my overflows don't go all the way down the the bottom they only go a bit further than halfway and it is all open space open sand back behind them. Also there are only a few rocks that are completely on the sand, most of my rockwork is leaning on others so i think it should be fine. As for the front left I like it that way it has most of my mushrooms and palys to that side and I like it. I was at Jared's (jbutler) the other day and his tank he has downstairs going through the wall was amazing and I could barely see any sand.

Jackie, I think your tank looks wonderful!! I would let it mature a little before you start doing things that might cause another cycle. Just my .02 ( did you lose one of the leathers?)
