I love that rabbit fish! Tank looks nice from this view too!

That rabbit fish is wicked!

I cannot recommend the Mitras enough nothing compares to it period.

Thanks guys, the rabbit fish really fits in so far.
Now to further my stocking list, I have to find some fish that do well with an open top and also don't require a lot of rockwork to hide in since the tank is so open. I am starting to feel a little limited in my choices, but I am sure I will find the appropriate selections eventually.

As far as the lighting situation goes, the Vega is gone and I will be moving on to a different fixture now. More to come!

So I shopped around for some lighting options and checked out the GHL Mitras. Holy crap! There is no way I'm buying that thing, my girlfriend would kill me if she knew I spent that much...

... so here's my tank with the new Mitras on it. Taken fairly late, mostly royal blues on the lighting.

So far, loving this light! I have it at 40% to re-acclimate the corals to a different light and bumping it up a touch each day. Programming is much better than Vega, and I only ran into one frustrating hiccup with it so far, but that's all sorted out and running great.

Rest of the tank is doing well, still need another MP40 to replace the old K2, and eventually upgrade the skimmer, but this little SWC-120 is working quite well for the load. I will get around to the skimmer when I find something that strikes out to me.

And here's the family, minus the PJ Cardinal who hides in the back until it's night or feeding time.
