Everything is maturing nicely. Looks like a reef!
What happened to your Moorish Idol? I know they don't have great success rates in aquariums, unless the tank is extremely large.
Love the purple firefish.

thanks Masterswimmer.
THe Idol pasted, was doing well for a over a month and a half. but during the heat wave I lost some friends. they'll be missed.

On a better note, Upgrading to a 120 gal and turning the 75 into the sump. planning is under way for this. the stand will be oversised to double as work area and storage space. As well as, to minimized the crapped condions of your average stand. In my line of work I've learned that when it comes to heat clearance spaces are very important.

I'll post better pics soon.
