they just fit in like a puzzle! most of the rocks are from my old 55g tank with the exception of the 2 white ones. theyre new but i probably plan on putting them into a fuge later on

Heres some more pics. Its so hard to get pics of the fishes with a point and shoot but i tried my best. the flash did a good job but bleh doesnt show the real color.
heres the six line. hes about the same size as the clown fish and gets along well

looks like one of the hermits found a new shell

probably my fav fish outta the 3. the only one i caught a pic of that was decent with no flash

the 3 swimming together. blurred

thanks man, i get my lights monday. corals soon after
btw here is a livestock list:
2 false percula clowns
1 six line wrasse
6 blue-legged hermits
7 nassarius snails
5 astrea snails
should i up my CUC, when i get my lights im afraid that algea may start growing at a faster rate. I still need to get a refugium up to help later on

Let the algae grow first, then add more CUC as needed. Thats what I did.
A green emerald crab would be perfect if your scared about algae. They eat like pigs!
