Look Great! Hows the Yellow tang doing? And did you get rid of the starfish?

The little yellow tang is doing great, he is just a young one and when he gets older hes going into a very large FOWLR. I still have the sand sifting star he's under the substrate somewhere.

I did some aqua-scaping and made some more ledges and caves so that I can add more coral. I made a large cave at the top with a large ledge in front of it. I also added hammer coral and sun coral. I just have to decide on which coral I want next to sit on the upper center ledge. It is a med/high light and med flow area, any suggestions of a good piece of coral for this spot? I am saving the very top ledges for sps.
I am also planing on selling my yellow tang and replacing him with a flame angel, I have had success with a flame in my previous reef set-up which was a 90 gal but I am curious about the flame angel in a smaller reef set-up. Has anyone had bad experiences with a flame picking on their corals or presently have a well behaved flame in a smaller reef (30-55 gal)

Thank-you

here is a pic of my new addition to my reef. so far he has been very well behaved and hasen't touched any coral. It took a lot of shots to get a good one because he is always on the move but with a fast shutter speed I was able to finally snap a good one.

Looks really good. I generally don't like the backs of tanks painted blue, but yours looks really nice like that. Have you added any other coras to the top rockwork shelf you created?

I've added two new corals an orange ricordia and a different type of frogspwan. I haven't added anything to the top shelf yet becuse I really haven't seen a really nice peice of sps yet but I'm keeping my eye out, mainly for the top shelf i'm looking for acro/table top acro and pink birds nest.
