Heres what the tank looks like now, unless Ive changed it again. I used the same double overhang theme from the 68g. I really only used two of the original pieces from the 68g overhang on these new ones. These ones are more massive than the last and and I was able to put the pillar in that I didnt have room for previously.

Hey thanks Doug,(great name btw) let me know if you need any help with the move. That makes three successful moves for this tank so far. The fishy gods must be happy with me or something.

I snapped a few top down pics of some recent additions. I also added a bi-color blenny. I was really missing the one I had before. Hopefully this one doesnt decide to carpet surf.

Purple monti cap I got from Danny Z at the frag swap.


Tri-color acro also from Danny Z.


Purple tort frag from Snappy at the swap.


And another purpleish, so far un-identified acro I got from El Guappo(Mike) for helping him frag some stuff up.

Doug,
Your new tank looks good, lots of potential. I new you'd eventually take the plunge to a bigger tank. Just a point of interest, if you put the "tan birdnest" into a lower light area (partly shaded) it will turn a cool green colour.
That tricolour acro is A.nana & the frag from Mike looks like it's probably A.tenuis. The piece from me is A.tortousa (aka Cali Tort)

Looks good Doug. I'll have to snap some shots of the frags your gave me, expecially the ric. Florida. It's a different color than my other one, almost red in comparison.
