Where should I place the powerheads, live rock, etc? I was told not to place the live rock against the back wall. Any help would be great guys. haha

How big is it? Is it the 35G?

Every tank is different.
There is nothing wrong with rock touching the back glass as long as there is enough room for water movement behind it.
You can hide the heater behind some rock so that it isnt as noticable. As for the power heads, those are going to have to be placed and rearanged after you stock the tank. Some corals require high flow and others require low flow.

Live rock is fine up against the back wall. It would be almost impossible to aquascape without doing so.

I was hoping you could.

Do not create holes/caves in the rock with only one opening. These will become detritus traps. Better to aquascape so that you have good flow under the rock. I actually have a Koralia partially hidden in the back the blows water under the rock.

They are doing much better and I think they are close to !00%. I'll try to get some pictures ASAP. I've got relatives in town this week so...... ugh!
When are you going to have some frags available?

I have frags right now. The 10g frag is still operational until the 29g finishes the cycle.
I have lots of zoas and polyps right now. I do have an India Acan and a couple blue candy cane or trumpet corals. I get those two mixed up. I really don't know what they are, sky blue LPS and they look like trumpets or candy canes to me. I have one fuzzy green mushroom and a couple Superman mushrooms.

Maybe you should start a Classified thread Rc. Pictures are worth a thousand words (unless taken by me:lol:)
