Perhaps a picture would be perfect so we can see what you have to work with :)

Yeah.. pics will help for sure.  You may also want to post whatever equipment you're running (brands/models) to see if there's anything that we can point out as needing replacement before it's too late.

If it looks empty, chances are you need more live rock as well.

But let it sit and get equalized with all the changes.

I don't know how to post pics if anyone can help me out with that

So many options and often no matter how big there ends up being not enough room  ;D  Always something new or interesting that would be nice to add.



Here is a picture or our set up about 8 months up and running now.  Have the names for most of the corals so if something catches your eye should be able to give you the name :)

So I went out and got my self one mp40 and was wondering where would be the best place to put it and has anyone seen only one mp40 in a 6 foot tank ?

On one of the side panels, middle area. As for only 1 MP40 on a 6 foot tank, yes I am sure it has been done but to optimize the features that the vortech pumps offer you would be better off having 2, one on each side and have them setup master/slave
