    I like the Pagoda the best. I took the Frogspawn out of a 60G tank I have, and it's grown nicely.

    I also like the Candycane, I like that green/white neon color, especially in the moonlights.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Very nice looking, I like the scape.

    My favorites are the B/W clowns and the red mushrooms.

    I like the scape as well, but it's really a pain in the ass to find spots for coral.
    Because if you don't put them in the sand, all the jagged LR is tough to get things to stay, and then the coral on top shades the area below it so it doesn't get enough light.

    I wish I had some more flat rocks on top, but oh well, they seem to like all the little caves and bridges.

    I'm happy I went with the black clowns over the orange I think. The black just kind of look cooler IMO

    If you were to look straight down at my rock scape,it is "U" shaped and I built 3 separate layers to accommodate the lighting needs of different corals. I also put the rock as close to the sides as I could and still be able to use a mag float to clean the glass. It gives me a LOT of room to place corals, but the downside is I don't have as much sand real estate as I would like.

    The 92 watt dual spectrum light seems to be working very well for me, corals (especially LPS) are growing like crazy.
