It still needs a little work. My photography skills are not great either. Any comments or reccomendations are appreciated.

I here the tang police coming. Actually I have had that guy for quite a while, he used to be smaller. He will go into my 75 gallon soon. As far as pics, that is all I have for right now. My friend with a little more experience will take pictures of it and post them later.

He used to be very small. That is the only reason I had him there. He gets along well but I know he needs a lot more space.

That tang is going to DIE! OH the humanity! You should research livestock before you buy it! You need 72386518297412465127452187451287541251245266546543 54846516541451548432178451321644654654 gallons per tang and only one tang per tank.
Nice tank. Should look cool once those frags grow up.

LOl. That tang wont be there for long. I know he needs more space and I have always known. I just figured it would do a bit better in my tank than the previous 10 gallon tank it was in. It is doing great. I rescued him and will give him a pretty big castle soon.

Is that a tunze in a 29. Man you must have some serious water movement, I put one in my 75 for about 2 minutes to test it and it looked like a toilet flushing.
Nice looking frags and tank.

No brewer, it is not a Tunze. It is a SEIO 620 and it works good for my tank. My little frags seem to be doing very good with it. I got my frags from Tim Marvin, he has pretty awesome stuff.

It's looking very promising Jerry! I like your rockwork.. it should look absolutely fantastic once things have grown in. :D

Wendy, that is a SEIO 620. It does 600 gph of widespread gentle flow. Its pretty cool and you get your money's worth in my opinion.

Chris, thanks. I noticed my frags are starting to grow. My cap was kind of flat and now it is making itself look like a little cup. I am amazed how quick these corals are responding to my system. I was actually thinking of redoing my aquascape. It kind of looks like a wall, what do you think? Any suggestions on what I can do.

I think the rockscape looks nice, but if you wanted to "space it out" a little more, you can use PVC piping to give the rocks some lift and create more caves and such. I've seen some really awesome 'scapes using acrylic rods (you have to drill holes in the rock for the rods) to hold up and separate the rock.
