Hi,
Your tank looks AWESOME! I noticed in the last picture that you had a Chocolate Chip star and if you plan to keep him when you switch to corals, he'll harm the coral and possibly kill it. My LFS and saltwaterfish.com both said that it was not reef safe. Just a little advice. The lighting:Well, it depends if your keeping soft corals or hard corals. For soft corals you need 3-5 watts per gallon. Hard corals need 5-7 watts per gallon.
Can we see some pictures of the Flame Scallop? Your the first one I've seen in any of the tanks. Don't worry, he's reef safe.
Thanks,
Arlene1995 :happyfish

To get pictures on the page just put
after it.
And it will show up like this:




By the way, it's usually polite to resize your pictures to 500 pixels wide so that people don't have to scroll to see the whole thing. Plus people on dialup, like me, won't have to wait an hour!
