Current fish are powder blue, yellow tang, majestic angel, coral beauty, velvet wrasse, maroon clown, fiji damsel, blue throat trigger, and porc puffer.
For filtration I have a 55 gallon sump/refugium. Lighting is 320 watts pc's. No inverts as I want the algae growth for the fish.
Group shot.

Also before anyone mentions it. I'm going to put a black background on next week to hide all the garbage behind the tank. Went to the LFS today, but they didn't have any, and are expecting it next week.

The majestic is doing great. He is only camera shy. Don't think he likes the flash. Otherwise he is out roaming the tank most of the time. Even when I go up to the tank he'll stay out, as long as I don't make any sudden moves. He eats anything that I feed, frozen vitamin enriched brine, mysis, emerald entree, squid, muscles, nori, pelletes, and flake.

Ahhhhhh cyano! Brings back bad memories of when I had it bad in my shark tank(thankfully a few big w/c's wiped it out completely and I haven't seen it in months)
But otherwise very cool tank. I like the snowflake eel and that majestic angel. Kickass fish in there.

I'm hoping the cyano will disappear after the fuge starts taking off. It's started to slow down in growth. It was really bad a couple of weeks ago, but has started to subside.

Stacy,
I got rid of cyno by, increasing flow and skimming more. After further research, I think the more skimming did nothing, I belive it was just the fact I was putting more O2 in the water via the skimmer.

I added 2 powerheads yesterday to get a little more flow in the center of the tank. I unhooked my skimmer a few weeks ago, and havn't got around to hooking it back up yet. Mabe later this afternoon I'll get it done.
