To give you a better idea of color, here are some top down photos:

 

Another big change. I removed a ton of rocks and consolidated my coral onto 3 large island pieces (The back left rock with the purple montipora is being sold). I did not like the cluttered and bulky look of the structure I had. It looked unatural and took away from the coral. The flow was significantly reduced too.

I'll grab another picture when everything opens back up and the tank clears up. The flow is so much better. The tank is 100X better now.

 

I like it, minimalist.

 

It looks great I always like simplicity.

 

I concur. It's so much cleaner. One day, I'll go with a shallow, rimless, reef with a few pieces of rock and SPS colonies

Thanks Cam. I'm with you. I looked at a few tanks today and decided it needed to be done. The coral stand out so much more.

 

Lights almost done

 

All done. They're in the canopy, with the dimmer knobs drilled into canopy itself.

 

looks great

 

Thanks. I need to add a few more white diodes. The 8 royal blues, 4 violet and 3 cool blue overwhelm the 4 neutral white diodes.
