Your tank looks really good. Is there any advice you want to give me. like what do you have for lighting and what do you feed the corals and how long do you keep lights on for?

Thanks
I guess I can change my lighting schedule, Right now my antics come on at 8:00am and my MH come on at 11:00am and the MH go off at 5:00pm and the antics go off at 8:00pm. I was worried that I was running lights to long.
