My first pics and tank.

Here are some shots of my 58 gal. Its been up for around 3 months and seems to be doing pretty good. The pics arent great and some have the flash on, but its hard for me to get good shots with my camera. What kind of coral is in the first pic? I bought it as a colt coral but it looks a little different than the pics online.
Here goes, let me know what you think.

looks like a good start to me. I would say it may be a spagetti leather but not real sure. It sure don't look like my colts. Nice tank though. If may suggest that you bring your rcok work up. Make some caves and such. Unless you plan to add more.

I was going to say the samething. I have a 58 gal also. I will post pics after x-mas.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I do plan on getting more rock eventually, there is 70 lbs in there right now. I made lots of caves and arches just none as tall if I were to stack it higher. I 'll get another 40lbs after the new year sometime. Rock is just so expensive.

Is that a grounding proble on the top left side of the tank? If so, how important are they? Also, does that coral look green/blue when the polyps are not out? If so it looks like my green leather?

No its a pinkish color with polyps withdrawn, I like the green leathers though. I may get one down the line.
Its a probe for my digital temp gauge. I dont know much about grounding probes, I think they help with ultra sensitive fish like tangs.
