Water is clear looks good considering I just threw all my rocks in like this I'll probably let the tank settle for a few days before I start moving stuff like I want it.
What's the green huge eye in the pic?

Thanks for the info on the flow. So far with my over powered return blowing across my front glass and the mp40 pushing towards the overflow in the back it creates a very good circular flow. I did arange my rock so that nothing is in the way of the mp40. The gyre is something I have been considering if it dosent work out. The green eye is a rock flower anemone.

Thanks. I picked up 3 lyretail anthius and a yellow eye kole tang yesterday. They all are doing well but my sixline is picking on the anthius a bit. I put up a mirror next to the tank and it holds 100% of his attention so every thing can get aclimated I normally leave the mirror up for about a week and he stops after that.

Quick update I have changed the rocks around just a bit and I did upgrade to a gyre xf250 it's very powerful for this tank and I never go over 20% or my sand and torch/hammer coral get blown around to much. I really like the constant flow across the whole tank with little to no dead spots and have noticed a lot more growth tips on my acro.
I also made a diy led fixture out of old pc parts and it's growing alge in the refugium way faster than the small inovative marine fixture I had.
