| I always wondered what your tank looked like (posted in your sig.).
Not bad, but it looks like the tank still needs time to mature.
Looks good other than that.

| Nice, some cool rockwork there.
Deffinately watch the top offs, remember water evaporates, salt doesnt, your salinity may be a bit high.
As a side note, Id put the brain coral on the bottom, on the substrate, its where they prefer to be.
And you probably allready are aware of this, but I would be very catious about how many fish you have in there... all that load in a small tank can turn things for the worst. Just a friendly reminder. Dont know of your plans.
