Looks like your crabs are having a smorgasbord LOL I'm glad you got everything up and running after everything!

Update time...today I picked up a crocea clam, since I now have the lighting to keep one, and also, since it's the smallest of all clams, it's suitable for my tank.

Really nice clam.You really have the rocks packed in there.

Crocea are rock boring clams.They actually do better on the rocks.

Ok you all, I got a little bored last night, so I reaquascaped the entire tank to give myself more floor space for the clam and for when I get a lobo brain later on. The layout is a semi-circle type design. I'll post pics when I get out of physical therapy, the lights will be on by then.

Ok, here are the pics I promised...

I just did an approx 40% water change, so a lot of my corals are still kinda closed up right now.

Lookn good there smitty.

 

[Smitty]

Thanks Project...I was up all night re-doing all those rocks. So now I have more floor space and it opened the middle up a lot also.

Smitty, I really really like the way you did your aquascaping. I plan on doing the same thing eventually. It looks like a window into a specific piece of the reef and not like you tried to simulate the entire reef in the tank. There is a MASSIVE tank in Iceland that follows the same concept, it is something like 1200 gallons though.
