What is the yellow coral above the chromis and kole (I think it's the kole, it's more of a blur??) in the 2nd pic? In the first pic there's an ocellaris in it. Is that some kind of gorgonian? Can you post a closeup of it (I have a thing for gorgs ..)

Yep its a gorg! I love them too! I have 2 and would love to add some of the harder to keep red and yellow...but "key words" harder to keep make my decision easy! I will check all my pics and see if I have any decent ones of the two.

Nice hex. I had a 35g hex as my reef tank for a couple of years & loved it. In fact, I've had people tell me that was the fav. of all my tanks & why did I not set it up again when we moved. Oh well, good to see someone else carrying on the hex-reef tradition. It's harder to aquascape, but well worth it in the end IMO.

Cool tank. I can understand how frustating it can be with a tall tank, mine is 24.5 inches and I get frustated with that, but I love the aquascaping you have done. I really like the pillar of rock look. That look inspired my tank.

The resurrection of a thread AND the tank!!!!
After 5.5 years I figured I should update this...the tank is still running but I will say it's neglected BADLY! I only have a pair of False Percula's in the tank, some snails and a few gorgs, ricordea, cashmere shrooms, superman mushrooms and a leather or 2. Since we bought me a job (I left my job of 21 years and decided I needed to be my own boss, good God what was I thinking?!) the tank took a very very far back seat. The other tanks were either sold or rehomed to my work...as well as the 10 foot long tank we have at work took up a bit of time.
I have done NOTHING to this tank in years....I still have the Aqualight Pro 150w/PC light on it, Remora skimmer, and the numerous powerheads. At work we just switched our Aqualight Pro 250w from PC lights (YUCK) to the Hagen Glo T5HO ballast and end caps.....WOW what a huge improvement and it fits inside the light like a glove!!!! SO easy...so I figured I'd do the one at home also....and then I opened my Christmas present and found a LOVELY Kessil 350! To say this is a nice light is an understatement!!! It's stunning! I am eager to get the tank back to nice looking again. I have a few fish that need to come home with me, some corals to bring it back to a beautiful system and then I'll post pics. I LOVE this light! Got me interested in the tank again that's for sure. I even did a water change (first one in a very long time) so the clownfish are pretty happy! BUT on the other side...if you own an Aqualight Pro light...do the T5HO swap and get the PC's out of there...it's SO incredibly easy and the difference is like night and day!!!! And cheap too...the unit I think was about $80.00...comes with the ballast and end caps...you use the original reflectors and done! The Aqualight from this tank will be refitted and used on a coral tank at work. Can't wait to see this tank in good condition...was a bit sad to look at the pictures and look at it now
