    im planning on keeping mostly LPS, but i do have a monti, and i'm wanting to get a few more SPS. I have a ton of light, and a ton of light penetration due to the shallow tank. I love it and so do all my critters!

    Great tank setup! Makes me want to graduate college early so I can start on a bigger tank myself. Can't wait to see more.

    Even though I am a HUGE fan of Red Mandarinfish, isn't it a bit early to be putting in this fish which requires a specific diet of copepods and amphipods unless trained for mysis?

    only the tank is new. fish has been with me for almost 4 years. tons of copepods on the live rock. Live rock itself is about 6 years old. Pristine water from my 55 went to this tank with a water change. No cycle to speak of, everything is happy!

    O my bad. Haha. That's why we don't assume anything.

    update... everything is super happy, bubble coral is a little mad i guess, the dragon goby stirred up some sand up onto it. other than that everything is happy, and open fully. love the new tank, now i just need to get some new bulbs and the tank will be done. :)
