Looks great. How's that coral beauty doing with the corals? How often do you feed?

The coral beauty is a brand new addition. Had him about 6 days. So far so good. He picks at the live rock and leaves the clams and corals alone.
I feed 1/2 to 1 cube of frozen food/day. I rotate thru brine, mysis, krill, squid and cyclops. I clip nori about 3-4 times a week.

My wife lost her job in February. She was an executive VP at a major company. She is interviewing all over the country. Her severance runs out soon so she will have to take a job soon. Right now it looks like Wisconsin. I will stay here for another year so my son can finish high school here. Then I will join my wife wherever she is and my son will head off to college *eeeek!*
I am seriously toying with the idea of setting it back up as a species specific tank. I would love to have a harem of clownfish over a reef covered with anemones.

Your tank looks amazing! At 6 months my tank was covered in algea!
Jbird, your tank really turned out nice!!!
I sent you an off-topic PM (camping in Oregon advice)
