Thanks Keith and Krista, always appreciate comments, good or bad so I can try to improve it. :)
Hopefully it can be good enough to win tank of the month one day.

Ok small update,
I have 4 lyretail anthias (all females) and 3 chromis in my friends qt tank for 2 weeks now. My friend found it on the lfs and bought it without me knowing to surprise me and I have promised to pay him on my pay check.
They should be coming to my house by tomorrow and pics are coming soon.

I have about 5 huge LFS around me and me and my buddy always look around for new things from those stores and he happened to find a small shipment of lyretail anthias and knowing that I have been looking for them, he jumped on it grabbed 4 female anthias, 3 chromis because we were talking about it before. He knew my situation with money so he used his own money and put it into his QT so that he can give it to me after observing them and such. And ofcourse, I will pay him on my paycheck this week.

Here you go, I was about to post all of this tomorrow with pics of the new fish.
Quick question to everyone else. This thing ate a snail as soon as it got into a tank and I haven't read about that before...
It does say reef compatible but I see these sweepers coming out from it. Does it sting anything and also is it invert, fish safe?

Your tank looks A-MAZING!!! It's really beautiful! I think you have a natural talent for aquascaping.

If your purple sea urchin is Strongylocentrotus purpuratus they feed primarily on Kelp in the wild. May be hard to maintain for the long term.

Thank you Lois!
I'm trying really hard these days. I feel like I need to stay constantly moving in order to survive and I really like how much my tank changed since it's downfall.
I'm actually proud of them. :)
Sorry I would write more but Jack (Iamjack) came over to my store to bug me about his fish tank and aquascaping lol.
