    So what do you guys think of my new tank set up? My girlfriend doesn't like it but i do. The reason for the reconfigureation of the rocks is. Well I took some of the flat rock that was the cheaper stuff wish i didnt buy it now, and I drilld some holes in it for some live bacteria and copepods and stuff to get into. Hoping to get its life started :p Then I forgot how I had the rock in the first place so I decided to change it up a little :p

    Good job...Now as your tank matures and you add corals and they grow and spread and coralline algae begins to flourish, you will be amazed at how much nicer your tank will look!

    Under the right conditions that is all that is necessary!!! Seems like your water parameters are ideal...good job!To help you along quicker try "Purple Up"... It works very well IMO.
    You may want to try a macro algae also.
