Post Move Full Tank Shots
I think I need to move the rockwork slightly further back. It's pretty much dead center right now and I have too much unusable space in the back.

Equipment wise I have added an Icecap 2K gyre on the opposite end as the 4k. They face the same direction with random flow patterns, creating the main directional flow through the tank. I had one Reefbreeders RPM pump on the back wall pulsing across the gyre flow. Last week I added a 2nd RPM. They alternate pulses from the back of the tank, across the gyre current. I have also added an autofeeder and a small pump in the fuge to minimize cyano and stagnation.
I don't think I need much more hardware on this tank. Instead of spending more on this one I want to save up for the 180 upgrade. I will just add more frags to grow out and a couple more fish. I need some algae eaters, leaning towards a Tailspot Blenny and Bristletooth Tang of some sort. And then a couple fairy or flasher wrasses will probably round out the fish, except for maybe a mandarin down the road.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
