Default Finally Pix of My 30g Reef Tank!!

After help from many of your, multiple questions, plumbing in new sump and refugium I felt like things were worthy enough to take pictures of.
I have a 30g display tank running a 10g sump via a mag5 return pump. I also have an Aquaclear 500 filter modded into a refugium hanging off the side of the sump being fed from a T in the Return plumbing. Skimmer in the sump as well. Also acquired some Medical IV drip bags which im using to administer Calcium and Alkalinity.

Not all too much to look at yet, but im happy with how my corals are growing and the fish are doing well!!

1-true perc
1-6 line wrasse
1-randal goby
1-blue/green chromis
1-Serpent Star

-torch coral
-kenya tree
-Brown Zoa's
-Fire-n-Ice Zoa's
-Blue Staghorn Acro
-Green Birdsnest
-Green Bali Slimer
-Green Star Polyps

How does it all Look?
