Thanks for the comments guys!

It is a species tank at least it's trying to be.

There are a few softeys in there tagging along for the ride, plus a perc, tang, and red fairy wrasse. I've been trying to get a picture of my wrasse but my digital camera "how do I put it sucks." (Thanks for the great quote incoma!) I can take good 35mm pics and scan them in so that's maybe my next project (how do you get film processed again? Do I actually have to go to a store? )

Deb, the rockwork in the tank form an arch across the tank. So although it's not really clear in the picture, there is a large cave right under the anemone which HalfPint calls home. I think he doesn't mind the camoflage effect. He seems to like his supply of nori, that's for sure. When I put the wrasse in last week, he said emphatically "As long as you stay away from my nori, we'll get along jussssssst fine." PS. He's not so "Half" pint any longer he's full on approaching a full pint (or at least 3/4 pint).

I think for the people that don't know allready, it must be said that this is a 72g Bowfront tank. STUNNING Creature
