    Wow this tank looks great. Your scape looks amazing compared to mine that I have in my 75 gallon right now. I just went through this whole thread and learned quite a bit.

    Major update

    I know I haven't updated this thread in ages, but I am here to bring it back from the dead ;) Since my last post, I have switched out my melanurus wrasse with a red line wrasse and I got rid of my leather coral and torch coral. Also, I have added a metallic shrimp goby, some GSP, a beautiful Kenya tree, a frag of green slimer acro, some glove polyps, more zoas, and a favia frag. Also, I redesigned my sump and modded my remora into an urchin and placed in there, and just yesterday I added a JBJ ATO system and got that set up.

    Now for pics!

    FTS (wrasse is to the far right, tang is right next to zoas, perculas are obvious, and my goby is in the middle on the sandbed)

    Nice pics. The Kenya Tree is stunning. The Slimer looks like it's getting great PE.

    Very nice looking setup. Your zoa garden is cool, and your Elegance is beautiful! Why did you trade in the Melanurus?

    He kept beating up my redline wrasse (also a halichoeres) so I just kept the one I liked better. I don't have a good picture of my new wrasse but I will get one soon :)
