Here's some updated pictures that I just took.
Lately its been running smoothly. Moved rocks off of the back wall so I could attach the gsp on there :) it will be a luscious green, wavey wall one day
Haven't bought in new corals, I just have the ones my friend held for me when I had that disaster a while back.
The MP10 is amazing!! Thinking about moving tank forward a little to maybe try throwing on my spare hob Skimmer. Do you guys think it will benefit much?
Here's the pictures.

Ive managed to keep it clean. I believe its from not feeding too heavy and staying on top of my 5g weekly water changes.

Just added a maxi mini anemone today (Stichodactyla tapetum)
When all settles in, I'll have to attempt some close ups of everything.

Good and bad news.

Bad first
The maxi mini didn't do well in my tank. I dialed flow way down and had it set up to where it could settle in and stick but it never did and it ended up letting go one night and got stuck in the mp10. I tried nursing it back but no luck.

Now the good.
I got a package come in today for my tank from my girlfriend for my birthday.
Here's a teaser shot :)

Everything has been good. Starting to get green coraline growing on the sides and I don't miss it. More work to keep the sides clean! :O

Chalice that started tiny a while ago. Picture doesn't do it justice. It's been turning greener.

I haven't posted a picture of my livestock. Hard to get pictures but here's the best I could get with my phone.
Two ocellaris clowns. They've been together for probably 2 years

Picture update.
I have the LEDs running over the tank on around 30%
I bought an aquamaxx hob-1 Skimmer off of someone that will arrive on Friday, and I also just got in a bonsai, hand made rock from Aqua-tecture which is made by Cerameco. My plan with it is to squeeze it in with the current rock for a bit, but I may have to take a little out.
Here's a fts I took today, sorry for reflections. Also look at the clown in the Duncans :)

And a picture of my new Euphyllia, Octospawn :) I just wish the color would come out better

Thank you!
Everything has been running smoothly. Adding the sand has made it look better and I think combined with the new lights is making the tank cleaner.
Here soon I should be installing an aquamaxx Skimmer once it shows up today and move in my aqua-tecture bonsai rock.

Did some work on the tank. First I added the hob Skimmer. Sort of breaking it in and trying to find a spot for the collection cup.

please excuse the black driver box. I need to build a light enclosure for my leds to hold it all.
Also, I took out to rocks and fit in the rest behind my new rock structure, my aqua-tecture bonsai piece! I'll still mess with coral placements tomorrow.
