Here are some pics of the live rock in the tank.
Sorry, photos not that good.

Could there be to much live rock in there?

Also, I think I have some Cyanobacteria

Yeah you could have a tad too much in there. You want enough room for the fish to swim happily and enough space for the water flow to get right round the tank

For cyano just get those phosphates down

The Cupboards need adjusting a little

it would look awesome if you could smooth and paint the whole front. I kno you need access though

Just a bit!

Due to the odd size I had to make them. Never done anything like this before.

Still got a bit to do on the doors, but I am getting there.

Ok, will take some of the base rock out.

Hi all

Sorry its been a real long time since my last post. Along with getting married and redecorating, it has been a very busy few months.

I have replaced the scratched tank with a new acrylic tank (42" X 22" X 22"). Not got alot of live stock at the moment as I wanted to keep it simple.

There are 2 clowns, 6 damsels (3 blue and 3 zebra) CRC includes a sea hare, some snails and some crabs.

Sorry - pics not that good - taken using my phone.

Thanks all.

Hi Ben & Ski, good to hear from you again - you both have given great advice when I was setting this up.

For an update - I brought a frag of Euphyllia Frogspawn last night.

I also want to get some Pulsing Xenia as they are great to watch.

I would love to get a tang but i don't think there is enough swimming space.

Thanks

Iain
