Hey Glenn, I see a couple of problems with your tank ATM:

The rock-rubble placement encourages accumulation of detritus. With the sandbed and all, you're already going to have a hard time keeping the tank clean. The low number of access points under your rock will only compound that problem. Bringing the rock structure higher will also allow you to bring the corals closer to the surface and to the light, which is a problem here.

Next, take out the dead scallop as soon as you get a chance, it's only going to trap more detritus.

Last, you gotta pull the man-eating shark outta there. Those things get HUGE! I don't think you have a properly sized tank for it. It would be cruel of you to leave it in there.

Edit: Next time you're by, ask me and I'll show you some hand pointers on stacking rock.

Edit #2: Watch out for those green serpent stars! They are notorious fish eaters.
