Looks pretty nice! The rockwork looks pretty natural. I'm not trying to be the tang police, but IMO sailfin tangs should'nt be in anything smaller than a 150 gallon

agreed and at least that possibly even bigger...55 just isnt long enough when they get bigger. Remember research before buying.
other than that looks good.

Looks decent, now you need to let time take over and fill in the empty spots with new coral growth. Keep trying to get the sailfin out. A friend of mine lives in your area, he could get it out for you i'm sure.
