Thanks everyone, I have 260 watts PC light, and an additional 150 watts regular output T5 light. It suffices, but I would eventually like to redo my setup and try some halide lighting.

I like the new aquascape..i bet your tangs are loving the extra space! I redid mine last week to give more space aswell..i'm not a big fan of the tank full of rocks to the top look. As long as there is about 1.5lbs of LR per g it will be enough to keep the tank stable. I personally think your tank would look even better than it does already with MH I just love the shimmer and shadows it brings.

Thanks again! Yeah I really do like the look of halide lighting, with the shimmer and all. But I think if I went with it then I would be tempted just to redo my entire setup so I could keep some nicer sps. All in good time I guess!

Jason, I have no clue what type of chalice it is. I got it about 2 years ago out at OA, and I dont think I asked when I bought it. It was about half the size too..... has grown a bit. My neon goby likes to sit on it and the cave goby sits under it, hehe. Sometimes it puffs up huge like the brain coral.

Oh I forgot to ask how long you have had your red seastar? I had a blue 1 but it sadly died on me..not sure why..just wondering what you do to keep them happy. I heard they have a short life span maybe mine was already quite old.. still unsure of the cause.

the blue linkia stars are difficult to feed, or at least their diet is uncertain and in an aquarium, most likely lacking. I have heard that you can manually feed them, but this is a chore.

The red stars supposivly last longer, but their diet is also largely uncertain.
