Love the wrasses. also got more info on that cube? dimension build on it?

Thank you. I too am I fan of wrasses if it wasn't obvious. :)

The dimensions are 30x30x24

As far as the build. I run a reef octopus skimmer in the sump. Sump is just a simple 29g Rubbermaid bin due to a tank not fitting down there. I also grow cheato in the sump. I had the tank custom drilled so the overflow and the return are pretty much the same level in case of a power outage. I have the return breaking the surface of the water a bit so the water would just sink down below that. That way there is no back siphon overflowing the sump and ruining my living room :) for flow I just have the mag 9 return pump, a koralia 1500 and 750 if I remember correctly. Lighting I just have the one Kessil a350w for now. I have it mounted about 8-10 inches above the tank. That's pretty much it for the build. No dosing system or ATO. I like to keep it as simple as possible. I don't want to be a slave to the tank and go all crazy. I was into sps for a while but that fizzled out due them being to demanding for my likes. :)
 
very nice selection of fish, especially the anapses wrasse! those guys are so difficult to keep long term. good luck!

I took some top down shots of the corals today and thought I would post them up here for y'all to see. some came out darker than i thought they would but they still came out decent I think for a beginner. Enjoy and let me know what you think, even if you have suggestions!
