It was finally time for the fun stuff. I glued many of the corals to utilize the vertical surfaces. Stocking patiently (aka I'm broke). I've made several changes and have new additions since this photo. I need to bust out the camera and learn how to use it. Slowly getting color, was browned-out when I first brought it home from the shop. Tank as viewed from living room. I should have done the wall on the right. Could have gotten a six foot tank in there. Something to work towards.
