    took four us to lift it into place, smartest thing I did was buy the "fore arm forklifts"
    if it wasn't for them I don't think we could have lifted it.
    Me on the left ;)

    I really like the tonga branch and doing a mix of rock.

    Nice set up.

    Thanks, I'll try to take some new pictures as I have some nice green coralline growing in it now. Fish so far are a few green chromis, flame angel, exquisite wrasse and a male blue jaw trigger- ordered the female from lfs to pair him up.

    Looks awesome Bruce! I really like the color you chose for the room and the starfish handles on the stand. Would love to see some updated pictures of the set up!

    Blue Throat trigger hiding under the shelf- the fish seem to love it under there
