Looks good Christy.

A naso tang will make short work of that "wafer algae" if you're looking to be rid of it.

Thanks for all the compliments guys

I'm not so sure if being here has really helped the tank. I just haven't done anything stupid lately. Don't worry, I'm sure its coming...

As for the wafer algae control. I've been thinking of adding a naso. I don't really know much about their personalities/disposition with other tangs. I'll have to start my research. The wafer algae isn't totally bad, I've been removing a good portion of it manually. Some of it has really conformed to the rock though which makes it difficult. When it starts to encroach on the corals is when I'll really have to lay the smack down

Naso tangs have a lot of personality and are really more like a pet and not just another fish. I just replaced mine that got caught in my overflow and died so my new blonde is still a bit shy. IME they tend to get along with the other fish very well and mine would come eat out of my hand. It was tame enough that I could grab it and pull it right out of the water. I had to move it out of the way sometimes when I was working in the tank because it liked to hang out with me but would get in the way sometimes. I highly recommend a naso. They aren't the most beautiful fish to look at but they have a personality you'll fall in love with.
