    Thanks. The direct link will take you to a bigger photo.
    This is a macro dominant tank and meant to resemble a low zone tide pool. There's a few things in there you probably would never find in that zone but I try to keep it as close as possible.

    LOL, isn't it the largest animal in the tank? But that's the way it always seems to go.

    Cool tank! I really like the macro mixed in. The plant life gives the tank a really healthy natural look.

    I know! I can't believe that's what I forgot to list. LOL

    Thanks. Actually it's macro dominant. Most of the coral is out of my 46 that I had to tear down. I didn't want to lose it and had no where else to go for now.

    Thanks Kacy! I love the little guys too :)
    I finally got my YWG, had him about a week and then he went carpet surfing. He managed to find the 1/4" slot along the back where the cords go out. I got the Orange Spot to replace the ywg but the Pistol hates it and pops everytime the new goby enters the shrimps den. Stupid fish LOL
