    Sweet setup! Pics aren't bad at all. Left of the Torch looks likes a Lobophillia.

    I agree the pictures look good to me too. How long has the tank been up and running?

    The tank looks great but that dogfish in the last pic is way to big for a 75 gallon

    He couldn't care less about the fish.. sadly I thought he would.. the tank has been changed up a lot already I had a near crash (nitrates) and lost most of the original fish. Last weekend I changed the substrate from crushed coral to sand. Some corals didn't fair the swap to well but most are fine. Added new fish pics coming soon.
