Heres my 20g Tall from about 2 months ago. I really need to create a build thread since it already looks a lot different and things just keep growing like crazy.

Yes I'd say so ... and as it keeps changing having your own thread would certainly be a good idea ... Looking good ...

I wonder if I should move it up or trade it out

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

If it is attached to the area where it is then I would not try to move it as you may damage the byssal gland/filaments .... if you can lift it off the substrate very gently and the byssal threads are only attached to some sand or other substrate then you can try placing it higher up or indeed trading it ... but from what you describe it seems that it needs more intensity ,,,,

Nice .... looks neat and clean and certainly not overstocked ... how are the clowns and damsels getting along ? Usually both are quite territorial so I have a feeling they may have made peace and are leaving each other alone/

Like that Plate you have in there ...

I have a 20 G tall also and feel that I am a bit constrained for space ... may switch to a Long when the $1 a gallon sales are on at Petco ...

This 34 gallon solona kept me in the hobby when I didn't have time for a larger tank. Pound for pound it became my best display tank:cry: (The tang was moved to a larger tank) It was dime sized when I bought it.

Looking great indeed and I can imagine it kept you in the hobby .... nice !!!

Absolutely great they were all introduced together. They are very friendly, when my son feeds them they come to the top of the water and basicaly eat from his hand.

Just upgraded my light on my cadlights 39g!

Awesome Light - I LOVE mine! I hope it works out well for you like it has been for me. Couldn't fit a 6-bulb T-5 over mine and now I am glad I couldn't - the Radion Pros give me better color than I EVER had before.

Cycling 12g aquapod.
Cfl fuge light for photosynthetic life forms during cycle.
No filter, just rock, sand, and some macro algae!

Brass dragons are authentic Korean hand made.
Light fixture is a wall mounted lamp flipped upside down with an adjustable arm. If I end up with some heavy light corals i can focus the light an either side of the tank. I like the exaggerated shadow look. Very eerie :)
