Almost a year on my 29 gallon. What do you think?

Here is a picture of the whole setup. I switched from 2 PC lights of 130 watts to a canopy I made to match the stand and then put in 4 T5 lights of 24watts each. I get alot better results now than I ever did

Here is a full shot of my tank

Here are a fews pics I took closeup on inhabitants I have in the tank

Torch

Hammer Coral

Clam

Ricordia Mushroom

The cabinet was picked by my wife since this tank is in our main room it had to be wife friendly I made the canopy to match. The cabinet cost almost as much as the setup did in the begining. Whats funny is some day she thinks she is getting it back. I have a 10 gallon refugium underneath in the cabinet and drilled holes for the pipes. If I sell the aquarium the cabinet goes. HAHAHA

FYI look in my gallery to see a fullshot showing the refugium.

I actually just got some plywood from lowes and glued together a box then used a sander and painted it white then used a glaze over the white and wiped off excess in certain places to try and get the same color as the cabinet. Then I got the knobs and decorations on the front from lowes already made and glued them on the front. I had to cut the rope stuff in a square using a chop saw. It was actually fun doing it.
