OK so I have done a couple of things to my tank,
First, I have acquired about 50 pounds more live rock, 20 more pounds of rubble (going into sump once I install it), along with 20 pounds of crushed coral.
I have changed the back ground from the dark black and dreary, to A cool blue underwater view.

I have Ordered a Vertex IN-180 Protein Skimmer.

I have also installed 4x 48" t5HO light set up with moon lights (The moon lights are neat, I haven't seen them before)

I have cleaned up my old fish tank
(IE: the tank that was the sump when I bought the set up)
The bad part about the sump .... The tank that was under there, has to be put in there when the aquarium is off of the stand. It does not fit through the doors.
So now I am looking for water tubs, ice chest, water buckets that I can find to hold all of the occupants while I am doing this.
I'll post up a couple of pics when I find my camera.

Nice, looks like a 'legitimate' saltwater aquarium now

What's the new addition? The yellow fish under the clown, above the foxface, in the 2nd pic?

a yellow damsel he is not new,
the new additions are:
A mimic tang, the clown, a neon gobbie, a med brittle star , some hermit crabs and now i have another long spine sea urchin, ... it came with the pkg so i had no choice to add him. I dont like then as they eat what little Coraline algae i have.

I am sad to say my tank was sold today. It is a bitter sweet deal. I sold it for penny's on the dollar. However look at how much time and money it will save me in the long run.
