I really love the way the front panel opens. :D

The thickness really restricts in the sense that

U can't put in / stack enuff LR or corals upwards.

U can try to crush LR & glue them to form a wall....

(LR is essential IMO)

I suggest U put LR w/ softies attached to fully

utillise the the space at the bottom.

Get some chomis to school around the tank's

mid level to fill up the center.

I also advise against the anemone.... :erm:

I dun think its gonna do well in this sys.

Light not strong enuff. Current i cannot say

but doesn't seem to be strong either.

As per nakazoru says.... Its gonna be

VERI BAD if it dies in your tank. Bad enuff

in a normal tank. For yours, cleaning will

be a back breaking event.... :evil:

All the best !

Your tank is a real challenge !

Wow, at least you spotted the anemone...i cant. Think my eyesight is getting worse... :lol:

I missed the anemone too! Yeah, quite a challenge... can't even add a skimmer... I thought my NC is hard enough... agree adding a bit more live rocks will benefit the overall aesthetics as well as water quality. Buy the cured ones from fellow reefers... don't buy from LFS. That's what I did and no Ammonia spike.

Is the sea fan hard to keep? I know they need good water flow... what about lighting?

Oops... my first major mistake! Oh dear... it will probably not survive in my tank for long. Can someone five me more advise on how I can feed it? Micro plankton comes in bottle? If yes, I better go get one soon.
