    This is day 10 - sorry for blurry photos, need to wipe inside and outside off. Water change in the morning.

    [​IMG]

    5 Snails, 3 Hermits, 2 Yellowtails. ~30lbs Live Rock, ~5lbs Live Rubble (replaced ceramic tubes in back filter, always submerged), ~20lbs live sand (Egg crate under big rock piles). Snails are going to town on the algae! Almost forgot - 2 peppermint shrimp are in there too.

    Cheers

    Looks good.
    Must say I'm a little disappointed though....Your thread is called "Action shots" I was expecting to see some fish posing in some classic action shots such as the popular "walk away calmly as something explodes in the background" or the ever famous "Still frame of two people punching each other in the jaw at the same time"
    Just kidding.
    Is the top rock on the far left secured? It looks like a boulder just itching to roll away.

    Heh, yea I tried to get the damsels to be more engaging - actors, what can you do?

    The rock is zip-tied through two different spots. The top left piece is actually an upside down calcified coral skeleton.

    Thanks for looking!

    Everything was taken from an 800 Gallon system - Live rock, sand, water. I've done one water change (well two, just did one) of 10% every five days.

    Tank is fully cycled.
