    Beautiful tank! I love the first FTS picture, especially the outline of the starfish :)

    My only concern is the Flame Angel. I would think a 20G would be too small to keep one longterm. Otherwise, your coral and fish selection is excellent.

    Thanks guys, it's certainly a challenge do create this. I couldn't count how many time I change the layout in the past 6 months. I don't glue the rocks, so they are all stacks. Several things I have to balance:
    1. Rocks placement
    2. Corals placement to the water flow
    3. Corals placement to the lighting need
    4. Corals placement to the neighbourhood (some corals have tentacles, some corals have similar toxicity)
    5. Overall placement to the observer from front and side view

    It't not perfect but I have done my best (I guess).

    The red thing next to coco worm is actually red algae. It's very hard to get rid of, so I just keep it for now. At least it has a certain appealing look.

    Oh yeah I am aware of the size of Flame Angel, but for now it will stay before move to bigger tank.
