    Here is a pic of the Neon Green Acro. It is not showing its full color right now because I just got it yesterday from Vivid Aquariums with the Scolymia. It was the only one I was able to take before the lights shut off. I will take some more tomorrow.

    Tank is looking good. I really like your aquascape. That neon green acro should color up nicely. I too buy stuff from Vivid a lot. Its nice only living about 20 mins from that store but its hard to save money, living so close as well.

    Thanks! I really like the look of the two separate islands, and it gives the fish a lot of additional swimming room.

    It definitely is a good scape and it gives you a ton of room for coral!!!!

    Alittle update, I decided to change the aquascape up because there was really not alot of swimming room. I also picked up 3 blue green chromis, one Fiji Mili, a Royal Gama, and I rescued a Tomini Tang which was in a 20 gal tank. I am still deciding if I am going to keep him or not. He seems to be getting along just fine with my yellow. I am also thinking about picking up a couple Koralia's and a Wave Maker system for them because I would like a little more flow in the tank.
