I agree......get rid of that background. Get solid black or blue. What kind of cleanup crew do you have in there? I don't see any crabs or snails.

yeah, im thinking about upgradeing in about a month but I really should get a better back ground but currently all my money is bein saved for those T5s... oh my clean up crew it is
22 turbos
3 brittle stars (one being mammoth a foot for every tentacle thing)
5 nassa snails
1 mysterious tiny hermit crab (came with the nassas and was labeled as one)
6 cerith snails
3 peppermint shrimp
and idk if you consider them clean up but 2 huge cleaner shrimp!
EDIT: opps i forgot 2 emerald crabs too!

Well you keep them well hidden. You should get about 25 scarlet or red tip hermits to round out the bunch. The blue leg and the zebra fight and kill each other too much.
