Amazing tank!

Love the colours but aren't your corals a bit too close? Won't it affect the flowm in your tank?

So far, the flow in my tank is not blocked by the sps, I feel flow is normally block by liverock more then SPS. But the bad point about having SPS so packed together are algae tend to grow within the gap and the tang are unable to reach it, sps also tend to sting when they touch each other.

For pottery have to get it small, big pottery which look nice don't really do well in captive and they don't eat any prepared food. A mature tank with a lot of stuff for them to peck will be a good start for the pottery, normally they will accept prepared food after 2-3 mths.

Stunning colors!

Do you have to cut back the corals often?
