I am moving to a house in the very near future and will have to dismantle the tank anyway. I can add some more hides to it at that time.

Can you take a pic of the setup now? Perhaps I'm looking at older pics and I'm curious what the scape looks like.

Here is the tank after 2.5 months. I tried to create as many caves as possible in order to have the little critters get away. The back side of the wall is made out of 3 layers of rock stacked on each-other and they are not glued; I'm hoping the tiger pistol shrimp and the goby will not create a rockslide anytime soon

Looking great Chris. get some Ricoridas for the sides on the sand and couple Acans or open brain for the front. also I would move the power head on the side or move it a bit up , and add a piece of live rock on the top of the rock your yellow poly is and mount your frogspawn there

Hey I still have the two pieces of rock from you

so most likely I shall rescape soon and go higher on the back wall.
Also I cant take up space on the sand as my sand-dollar will hate me

and hes doing a fine job of keeping the sand mighty white

In regards to the power-head... I hate that damn thing, its big bulky and casts a large shadow in the tank

not to mention I have to clean it of algae on weekly basis.... very annoying.
I have a list of things I want to buy and cant do them all at once unfortunately; its either a MP10, Tunze ato or upgrade my D90 DSLR to the D7000 and sell the D90. I went to J&L on Sunday right before stopping by your place to get something and was very undecided so I didn't get any tank upgrades.

I had to pull the tank apart to get the pistol out of there!
I added an extra bit of rock and well "urchie"
here's a few snaps with the Sony tx10

Well I made it 8 and a half weeks with NO FISHIES!!!!!
I think I earned myself a clownfish don't you?
I also axed that coral tree skeleton (the one covered in cyano) the cyano was gross making the zoas p'od and the aptasia liked it. so I scrapped it.
