Thank you! Yes I'm very anxious to get some fish in there. Tank looks very stagnant with no movement.

I do plan on lowering that, but seeing as it was my first SPS and I know they like heavy flow and strong light, so I placed it there in hopes it would make it. It obviously is doing well so I'll start to slowly bring it down to my rockwork height.

Speaking of rockwork, I have a plan to use some of the old pukani. Just has to get nice outside so I can clean it up before I use it again. Sooner or later it has to stop snowing!

I'm planning on hacking it up so it's like 2 large archs coming from the back over the top of my current rockwork with a single spire to hold it all up. It looks good in my minds eye, but we'll have to see how it looks when I get to actually doing it. My thinking is higher up in the tank for more higher light demanding corals, while still leaving plenty of room over the top of my current rockwork for light and flow for the corals that are already placed there.
