Thanks everyone its nice to have some new eyes see the tank.

As for specs on the tank it's a 46 bow front with a 20 gallon sump. Skimmer is a reef octopus dnwb-110. I have 2 bulk reef supply style reactors one running pelletized carbon and the other GFO. A next reef MR-1 biopellet reactor. Lighting is a deep blue 4 bulb T5 fixture (4x39w) with 3 blue plus and an aquablue special. Flow comes from 1 MP 10 and korilla 750.

Photo period is: 12 noon 2 blue+, 2 pm 1 more blue+ and aquablue special come on, 10 pm 1 blue+ and aquablue special turn off, 12 midnight lights out moon lights on.

As far as maintenance goes I do a 10-15% water change weekly (using RO/DI water and aquavitro salinity salt) and change filter socks every 3-4 days. Carbon and GFO are changed monthly. I dose brightwells reef code A and B as needed. I also dose aquavitro vibrance 2 times a week. I dose kent tech-m as needed as well. Lastly I dose 5ml of brightwells vitamarine c daily.

Tank is fed once a day using KB reef food, PE mysis, rods fish eggs and polyplab reef roids.

Here's a few newer pictures of the tank. It's pretty cool to look back and see the growth and changes. Taken with my iPhone I'll try to get some better ones with the camera shortly.

That is the JF jack-o-lantern leptoseris. It is doing pretty well for me. That picture is from when I first got it a few months back I'll try to get some newer ones soon
