Fire shrimp! They are gorgeous, IMO. Orange lined cardinal fish are also pretty.

Same way at my petco. I bought the tufa rock too. Lol! Try looking on Craigslist. You may be able to find someone willing to sell or even give you a couple chunks of liverock.

Yep. They're beautiful but they can sting other corals around them. As long as you can make some space around them it should be doable but other LPSs are easier to squeeze into a 10.

Nothing major. I'd paint the back of the tank a deep aqua blue or black. Also get yourself some more live rock.

That's about it! Tank is looking sharp!
