Great build! I just picked up a tank with the same dimensions, yours is very inspiring! I will definitely be using some of your tricks with mine! I don't notice many corals in the lower 1/4, is that personal choice or due to PAR being too low?

thanks.
I've had some LPS in the sand bed, or near the bottom but they didn't do well. don't know if it's PAR, I've never checked it, or something else. (possible aluminum in the water from the MarinePure Bio blocks in the sump)
I bought a long tentacle plate and it was doing fine until it ate an anemone crab. it started crashing the next day and never did recover. I've tried a few others but was not successful.
also, there isn't a lot of open area in the bottom that gets full light, due to the scape and coral growth on the scape.
 
things are MIA.
:(
missing one large blood shrimp. one HUGE skunk cleaner. two nem crabs.
no body parts anywhere to be seen so doubt it's any of the fish.
no live rock in the tank, so doubt it's some sort of hitch hiker.
I'm baffled. and sad.
 
came downstairs to find my copperband butterfly got stuck coming through one of the cave openings. no idea how long the little guy was like that. hoping he can make it through the night and recover.
