You're welcome! I found it inspiring as well. A mangrove tank definitely won its place on my list of future tanks! Though when I do it I won't do as strict of a biotope as you are; most likely I will do anything that can be found in (tropical) mangrove reefs at any time in any place. That way I will have more coral options than just photosynthetic gorgonians. More fish options, too.
If only we could get Caribbean stony corals in the hobby. I would die for a frag of Madracis mirabilis! It would be so awesome to make a tank featuring a monotypic reef of that SPS and schools of beautiful Caribbean fish! I wonder what colors it would be in better water conditions.
