Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the 75 gallon tank had a sticker that said "Do not drill, Tempered glass." I think that's the main reason I didn't drill. I was tempted to drill the side though, but didn't want to risk it.

Oh... Well the sides would have been OK in most likelihood but you wouldn't be able to drain it down as much. So there ya go anyhow.

Here are some growth shots from about 5 - 6 weeks of growth. Sorry the pictures are bad. My wife was out with the camera, so the after pictures are with a cell phone:

Sorry, I'm not great with latin names or technical names of the sps:

That fish at the top is a twin spot hogfish. I would recommend it for any reef tank. Had one years ago and was one of my favourite fish. Yeah, with that coral, I couldn't believe when it started turning red, and then the tips got blue :).
