Very nice start. I like the rockwork. Have you tried adding a small piece of the branch rock to the right side of the base? I think that would look cool to.
What are you using for flow inside the tank? Probably won't have any dead spots with those branch rocks.

I actually really like the single rock look.

Very nice
I think the 480 Elos is better

Time to reinforce the floor

But I have lots of work and that will take me moths to get it done and I don't have time and my corals don't have room !!

I had an opportunity to see this set up when i picked up my premium clowns on Saturday. Rock works are nice. it must cost a fortune.
