Yes thats called levels . In my three step class I can take you threw fastening corals to mag floats,powerheads,overflows and yes the back glass. And for a limited time I will show you the fine art of egg crate trays.. As I see by your picture you are only about half full. I see alot of open space.

wow... ok urs makes mine look empty LOL nice tank man

It was before I did the tank transfer to a bigger tank. I started collecting corals and making trays(levels) to keep them until the new tank was ready. I wouldn't suggest this route because it ended up blocking alot of flow off from corals and I lost a few nice pieces before I could transfer them. Anyways your tank is looking great.

WOW looking at the pic again, love the little boxfish in there...not something you see often in a reef!

zazzoo 02-27-2009 08:15 AM

thanks for the compliments guys... never thought about leaving room to grow LOL..... 2 clown fish from 8 years ago ... they are the breeding pair i used when i was breeding them .... box fish .. YES! my fav fish ... he touches nothing in the tank... waits for food everyday ... GOES completely nuts when he sees his feeding straw... yeah very reef safe... had him for a very very long time too... almost same time i had the clowns.... should see his scars on his body from the BTA ... hes good friends with the clowns and sometime thinks hes one himself.... goes in the BTA .. Zap Zap .. runs aways pretty darn quick for a guy that cannot swim very fast LOL ... he does this quite often LOL...
