New layout works for me.

As for macro, have you tried Halimeda? It's green but grows fast and big.

I did try halimeda but it died over time. Not too sure why. Calcium and magnesium levels were good, so it should have been happy but it just didn't work out. Too bad because I really like the look of it. I may try it again though sometime.

Im really debating some gorgonians but it seems that the success rate in aquariums is not great so I may pass on them. I really think they would fit in well though.

Great looking setup Justin!

There are plenty of photosynthetic gorgonians which are (in my opinion) almost as nice, equally as nice, and in some cases more nice, as the non-photosynthetic gorgonians. I think some gorgonians would look wicked in that setup.

Justin, tank looks great!

I wish my goby was more like yours. Can't seem to fatten it up, and it's always hiding...

Thanks. What kind of Goby is it? I have never owned one before this guy so I just assumed they were quite social but maybe I just got lucky. Do you see yours eat often? I know mine goes nuts for chunks of clam and prawn that the puffers drop. He even takes food right out of the porcupines mouth! I really wish he would not do that though...It can't be too safe.
