Thanks Noah! I like all the negative space the caves and over hangs create. I'm hoping once it grows in and everything tables out it will become even more drastic.

I added another mp40. Really moved some sand/frags around so I gotta clean that up a bit.

Looks very nice Matt.

The inverts are usually in separate systems at the wholesaler so just have Chad get you some and pick them up in the bag. Give them a rinse in new saltwater and you should be ok. I think? :p

The rock work looks very nice. If the ATS works out, your tank would be a great example. thank you for sharing. I am following along

Thanks for the heads up [MENTION=3628]BeanMachine[/MENTION]. Really didn't want to qt a cuc.
[MENTION=11391]let.it.go[/MENTION] I'll keep the progress updated with the ATS. I pulled my GFO and went all carbon so I expect to see some growth soon.

Really digging the scape. Will look real nice once all the corals grow bigger and will fill out even more.

I totally agree, the hardscape is legit. Like Zoarder said, it looks a lot bigger than 100gals. Use of space is on point.

Thanks for the compliments on the tank guys. I plopped the rest of my fish (minus a neon goby who hid in the rock) in the display today. That makes for
8 reds pot cardinalfish
2 BW percula
Red masked goby
Geometric hawkfish
Female rhomboid wrasse
Red velvet wrasse
Yellow eye kole tang
Midas blenny
Fire fish

Now that the lights are on the rhomboid is hitting the acclimation box pretty hard to get at the velvet wrasse. Glad i finally bought the box though. Hopefully that subsides over the next few days.

I'll get some pics up once they all settle.

Missing
5 red spot cardinalfish
1 pygmy Geo hawk

All eating with no signs of illness yesterday.... I'm gonna have to pop in with a flashlight in the middle of the night. There's gotta be a predator of some sort. Hard to imagine they all ended up in my carpet nem at once.

Rhomboid suddenly had no interest in the red velvet, so I released him today. So far so good.
