opinions on the aquascaping I did have to lean a couple rocks on the back because there is a ton of rock and was running out of ideas what do you think. I picked it up for 50 cents/lb so I got a lot! The same guy is selling me a pretty coool looking frog spawn and a mushroom rock for $50 I am very excited! to say the least its a little merky, but I will try to post some more pics after the coral is added and it clears up.

I think your rockwork looks great! Make sure everything is stable and solid -- you don't want any rockslides.

Yeah I tried to be pretty careful about the sliding that is close to a total of 300# of rock and would definately cause some damage. Thank you biff

here is an idea of what it looked like before except I got rid of the lunare wrasse, the eel is ok, but has scars on his tail from a puffer fish that bit him, the filtration is completely different, and the lighting is a lot better now
