The full reef pics is a couple of months old. I have the final rock-scape completed (redisigned it) and used almost 100% Marco Rocks with nylon rods and bolts to secure the pieces together.


All supplements including ca.alk are dosed via profilux controller and 2 4 head doser pumps. Currently using the MB7/Bio-fuel/Vitamarin C/ Potassium/ Strotnium/Ferrion/ and BRS 2 part. I also dose Aminos daily and lugols weekly.

Water changes are 35 gallons every week with Brightwell Salt.
 
Sweet tank! I love your fish too!
 
i still cant ever believe my eyes when i see angels and butterflies in sps dominated tanks. or ANY reef tanks for that matter. i know certain ones are very harsh to corals and others are a little better with them, but as a general rule, and although i have ALWAYS wanted to design a large butterfly and angel tank with sps, i have learned to keep them separate. i am EXTREMELY impressed with your setup, and i wish you continued success. beautiful tank

I have been pretty lucky. The Pyramids are plankton eaters and I have never seen them pick. The Burgess and part of the "Tinkers Complex" and they are "safer" than other butterflies from my research :). The Goldflake is a model citizen and so are the pair of multicolored angels.

I think one key to successfully doing this is to #1 do a lot of research and #2 feed your fish! I feed these guys up to 4 times a day. They get Omega fortified mysis, rods reef, artic pods, and spectr-vital. A little something for everyone and every fish in the tank eats these foods readily. They are pretty fat and happy :)
