Yikes. First I'd like to note that I haven't posted pictures in a very long time due to a broken lcd monitor on my crappy old Sony 4.1 Cyber-shot. Second, I'd like to thank all who've helped me come this far. I'm really taking my time as you'll be able to tell. Thanks
29g w/ 10g sump, 45lbs LR, 2 false percs, 1 emerald crab, 7 astraea, 10 nassarius, and 12 assorted devil hermits. PC lighting that's growing some gsp, and 2 frags of zoas.
Here's what my tank started out as before I rescaped. Thanks PD.

I decided to move my rocks off the back glass. Total flow now but I think I like it.

Side view with the male clown we've been calling Mahi.
I have a 2yr old give me a break.

Other side with the queen... Ahi. I know it's cheesy.

Small mother colony of GSP of which I've already fragged. Not sure if I like the placement but that frag fits perfect.

Frag I'm getting credit for at my LFS.

4 hour old seems to be doing well.

Another of same

First zoa frag about 1 month old. Both frags are on the sand because of my emerald. I just picked up some holdfast today and am planning on attaching them tomorrow.

Looking very good so far, keep up the good work. Don't feel bad, I have a Dory,Nemo,Princess, and Bad fish(Blue line Hamlet, big mouth, looks like he's frowning) are what my kids call some of the fish I have. Good luck

I'll keep you in mind when it comes time to frag those. I'd love to trade.
Thanks for the nice comments everyone.

Ha that's funny. I kinda like my tank with black sand. It's not that easy to stack them without the use of the back glass.

No it isn't...i used TONS and I mean TONS of glue to make sure they stick...those rocks will NOT be tumbling down for anything. But you're right it does look like your tank with black sand...that is entirely too funny....can't wait until I can start stocking it.

I don't have my rock secured with anything. I should though. I've got 2 rocks on the top that are a little iffy.

Not nessecary. I doubt anything (fish, pumps, etc) will have enough force to move them around.

True, not necessary by any means. I did it more for me than fear of others knocking the rock around. I hated it when I would go to move a coral, send the rocks tumbling, and then never get the look back....
I can be clumsy sometimes...and 29 gallon really doesn't give you much room to play with...
Trigga, that is a very nice looking set up you have there.
