the rock work around the tank was done about 3 months ago.. .really sets off the tank when you walk in the house... the rockwork in the tank was re-done about 6 months ago, when I needed to make room on the sandbed for my stingray.

They took a little tweaking, of just blowing enough air under them to get them to go all the time without issue... they do get some algea on the sometimes, since they are so close to the light... about once a month I put a turbo grazer snail on the revolutions.. and he cleans it good....
I love the oceansmotion... and would recommend the product to anyone.... just getting the 4 powerhead cords out the tank was enough to justify the price... My corals have opened up more and truely enjoy being blasted by a random current.....

Here are some pics of the 'behind the scenes'...
I took out a 10x12 bed room and ran a dedicated 15 and 20 amp breakers to the room. There is also a dedicated water source that sits under the tank that feeds my 4 stage Spectrapure RO/DI. The RO/DI can produce 90 gallons a day.  UV Sterilizer keeps Ich at bay... I have never had an incident of Ich or disease since running the sterilizer  100 Gallon sump/ fuge with 2 phosban reactors. Little Giant 2MD to mix water and to pump water out of the 45 gallon container.  Here is a pic from the top of the tank looking down on the sump and water changer

Its cool that you have that you have the yellow clown goby in there. Most people never see there small fish ever again. They tend to disappear.

my clown stays out all the time.... constantly swimming between the Pink Sylophora, pavona, turbine, and my large green sinularia.... I hand feed him too as he will come up to the top when I feed.
