The tank is about 1 year old, 40 gallons, HOB Aquaclear 500, HOB skimmer and 2 power heads. The lighting is coralife PC with sunpaq bulbs. There are lots of different corals in it form acans to zoa's, SPS to chalices. Please share your thoughts and questions.

Sorry about pic size working with IPhone only, but I like your setup and everything looks nice. I will do sand in next tank. I'm working with same type equip, 2 HOB filters, skimmer, two power heads, upgraded from CF to 4x39w T-5's, 2 700nm, 2 420/460 actincs, n everything loved it and started growing like weeds
 
looking good. I have the same skimmmer and I hate it coralife point of sale. Can any one recomend a good one?
 
I have used a Remora on my sons NC28 for several years now. It is a decent skimmer but nothing to amazing. I was actually considering upgrading it to a Warner marine HOT skimmer soon.
