LOVE the look of this tank!!! I like the middle island the best. It has these ledges and overhangs in it and really looks like a real reef. My second most favourite feature of your aquascaping is the contrast between bommies and open sand areas. The left bommie for some reason ... it is a little out of place on account it's way less busy than the other two bommies. Realize this is because of the scroll coral needs its own like that but there's something missing on that side somehow. It still looks good though, but it needs some more things around it maybe.

Awesome like always John. I love your plating corals I wish I had both room and the corals to do that. I think a nice big swaying SOFTIE in front of the left island. I snagged a giant frag of Greg's corky finger today....that'd be sweet behind or in front of it!

I really like the open look John. I am excited to see HUGE colonies as they've got so much room to grow! Good job!

thanks for the input and comps guys.

Brett I did have that in mind to do a gorg in the tank, I picked up two frags last week but havent placed them yet, I would like to try and hold out to see if i can find something i tad bigger though.

thinking on trying another couple of gobies, in particular an orange spot sand sifter and a rainford, anyone have trouble with this combo ?

I had gotten some platys from Jay (reefcanada) a while back and they have done really well, so i might be trying a few more if i can find some nice ones again.
