Thanks. Here's the specs:

37S Oceanic glass tank (contrast collection with stand)
3/4" drain to 18T glass sump (my former display tank)
Coralife 24" 50/50 96W over display at day
Flourescent 50/50 15W over sump at night
Eheim 1260 (gate valve at 50%) returns through SCWD
DIY auto top-off with peristaltic pump

The sump has about 15lbs live rock, and a bunch of green macros. The display has a thin oolitic sandbed, 10lbs live rock, red grape macros (they don't seem to spread horizontally like the green stuff), and about a dozen hermits. The display and sump are crawling with pods. Hoping to add a few more horses (they all eat frozen food) and maybe some pipefish.

I’d say it a work of living art.

Really nice....

hopefully everything grows out well, so i can frag and trade some gorgs eventually. i wasn't feeding the yellow ones that much the first month, and they've receeded a bit. now i'm giving them daily blasts of cyclop-eeze, and waiting to see some new growth. the purple blades are doing great.

I want to be the first one to say that I am first in line for a frag of that yellow leather.

I think it will only work if it's attached to my live rock... :D
