Hey guys, last week I upgraded my previous 15g reef tank to my new 60g tank. It's not huge compared to other tanks, but it's certainly a big step up for me. The main reason I sized up my tank is because my engineer goby was getting too be big my 15g, but I also was wanting a larger tank so that it would be easy to maintain stability. Anyway, here are some pics:

In case you're wondering why I have so little rock, it is because my bioload is exactly the same as it was in my 15g: small. However, I am getting more rock soon so that I can increase livestock.
As you can see my corals are still in the sand bed. I didn't want that portion of the tank to just be empty sand, so until I add the new rock, that's where they'll stay.
Also, check out the table. I made it myself out of an old door, some scraps of wood, some stain, and shellac. I'm actually really happy with how it turned out.
I'll make another update soon when I add the new rock.
What do you guys think?

Something does not look right with your stand! The corner closest in the picture, the middle shelf is kicked out a bit and the vertical supports appear to be at an angle? Unlike what I see with the other front corner.

Yeah, you're right. Just checked on it and fixed it. Thanks for noticing!
