I've attached some photos of my current setup. If you wouldn't mind, please have a look and tell me what you think based on what you SEE. Give it to me straight... I can take it!
#4570 is a head-on view of the tank. It is my understanding that all of the coralline algae is a sign of good water quality. Is this true? Also notice on the sand bed on the left side... there is some brown algae growth
#5242 is a hang on Aquaclear filter. I have it there just for water circulation and a place to keep my protein skimmer.
#6434 is a shot of the right side of the tank.
#6452 is a closeup of the hang on filter... you can see the protein skimmer in the back.
#6742 is a shot of the left side of the tank. I have a power head the the bottom pointed back behind the live rock to keep water flowing through the rock. Also, I have a 4 stage canister filter which contains from top to bottom:
Tray 1: Small bits of live rock and filter media.
Tray 2: Ammonia scrubber pad and filter media.
Tray 3: Nitrate scrubber pad and filter media.
Tray 4: Chemipure pouch and Activated Carbon.
If you were charged with making this tank thrive, what would you do?
