the rock is resting on each other......but is is very stable (i spent well over 2 hours finding the perfect piece to be fit in evey hole) I plan on adding more fish for now but keeping them reef friendly since i am planning on a reef. I am just waiting untill i find a deal on lighting that i can't pass up.

i am going to stick with the 65 since my mom is going to set up the 90 as a fish only tank. Hopefully with a little more convincing i can get her to do a reef as well.

No, you need to go sloooww....get MH later when you're sure of what you want. Until then, chromis are cool little fish. I just bought 6 more myself. Relax, enjoy the journey.
