Great fish selection too! I love those yellow tangs.
Yes, the rock I just added was actually in a fully established tank for the past several years, and it only had to endure a 5 minute car ride.

I really did like the way the island setup looked, and I would have kept it longer, but my "vision" is to build up a long continuous reef covering the back wall to eventually populate with corals. (that, and jumping on a good deal on live rock when I see it is something I can't pass up, as long as I have the space)

Also I think the fish are happier now with more areas to scavenge, especially the Tang & Angel.
