Woah you have tons of rock. Once the corraline starts spreading it will look really nice. Nice tank although it looks a bit empty. (besides the rock of course)

I believe I'm sitting at about 35 lbs. of rock give or take. Yeah I wish it didn't look so empty. What would you suggest? I'm just now starting to get some good coral, I've been putting one every two weeks in. Right now I've got a rock full of purple button polyps, some frogspawn, and some mushroom frags.
The coraline is actually going pretty good, this picture doesn't really do the tank the justice it deserves in color. At the moment though my main goal is to beat the "Red Slime". I've got a way to handle that though, I'll put up an update when it leaves.

To add more color you could get some shrimp and some more corals that really show up. I know what you mean about the picture not looking as good. Everything in real life looks better than in pics...........except for ryebreads pics haha

Well I've got a very large cleaner shrimp and a peppermint shrimp in there somewhere, and I have three corals in that pic, u just cant see them very well, and the corals are expensive, so that's something I'm working on slowly

The one closest to the clownfish are my xenia's, the one to the right of them is frogspawn, and then the tiny little square at the bottom are my shroom frags.
