Thanks as well... I like how everything in your tank seems to be placed just right. Aquascaping is not one of my strong points (at least to me). I also like all the wide open swimming room you have for fish.
Someday in my next house I want a large (225+) tank viewable from 3 sides and all 3 sides with clean glass and everything completely viewable. My tank now is built on on the back with no real room for fish to swim although they do go in and out of all the caves and the shrimp have places to hang out, like my star and porcylen crab.

I think it looks really nice, I love the caves..Do you have a picture of a year ago?..That’s when you can really see a difference and be proud.

Do you think you're ready for a slightly more 'advanced' fish, now that you got your feet wet?

What about a male and female lyretail anthias? Relatively hardy, just make sure to feed at least 2x daily.
