Good work! Your aquascaping looks great!

The angels will love their new home. I would suggest getting both the queen and emperor as juvis so that you can watch them change color into adults.

Nice looking tank. You may have some issues with the Purple and Yellow Tang fighting. The rule is don't get tangs that are the same shape. There are always exceptions to the rule, but if I'm not mistaken some people have had issues with the Purple Tang being to aggressive. I have a Hippo, Yellow, and Sailfin and all three get along great. Can't wait to see your Emperor, my favorite fish, but can't have one because of my corals.
Maybe one of these days I'll do a FOWLR just so I can have my Emperor.

If you get the purple and yellow try to add them at the same time.

Thanks for the comments,Azfishgal. Hey Azul, I'll try my best and get both together. As for the rockwork -patandlace. I had to do it over like 4 times already. They keep falling off. So I decided to brace some rocks against the back glass, and made different wedges,no glue at all. Thanks again !

if you are getting a yellow and purple its better to get them in 3 or 5 or 7 to spread the aggression you can have 2 yellow and 1 purple or 3 yellow 2 purple. that's what i will do and add them together.
