Hard to get a good pic with the lights
 
That's awesome. Gotta love the towers of live rock coming out of the water! Looks great man can't wait to see more.

So i was putting my mangroves around my big rock and was thinking how cool it would be if i could have another plant on the rock too. I did some research and found the air plant. It doesn't need soil or watering, all it needs it to be misted and I already do that with the mangroves. So I am thinking of ordering a few just to test out. My only concern is how it will deal with the salt, but i would think daily misting would keep it healthy.

Well went to Lowes and got a single air plant. Looks rather cool, hope it does well

Today I decided to change the placement of the wave-makers. I think this new way will prevent dead spots better. Also I organized my power strip.
 
Well haven't updated in a while but I added my previous fish back into this new tank and have been adding some coral

This tank has been real fun so far and everything is doing great and growing great
All I have been doing is a weekly water change and i have mangroves and cheato growing in the back. Feed every day a variety of frozen foods.
