Ok that should work fine. Just gotta make sure
 
Yep i still need to decide coral 2 most of it grew from other tank (the button polyps, i think the other is cabbage leather) and i put green star polyps, and the waving hand coral in there was thinkin of also puttin torch coral and bulb anemone in
 
Tank is still goin threw cycle it looks like. I keep getting detritus back every 2 days. There is purple algae starting to grow on the glass. I checked water every thing is perfect except the calcium being low i dosed kent liquid calcium goin to check calcium again soon. I am thinkin about puttin 2 or 4 more t5ho on it. I only have 4 and doesnt seem like a good amount of light. I still need to upgrade to ati bulbs was thinking about going with 2 aqua blue special and 2 blue plus. Everything seems good though. I plan on bringing the yellow tang to the lfs and getting a bubble anemone and mabe a six lined wrasse. Also i still might get some torch coral and frog spawn.
