Default Thanks for all the help!

I want to thank everyone for their help. The skimmer is doing great. Levels are down. Looks unbelievable so far. Heres a weak shot of the better looking half of the tank. Need to work on the macro's now lol. And wait for the bubbles to clear from the skimmer. Thanks again everyone!!

Not only am i happy with the sand. I looked up detritious eater/cleaners and i love the sand sifting star and the cuccumber. Nice additions that just mesmerize you. Any others i could look into? Seems im gonna need alot more because of the fish load. My ammonia and Nitrite are 0 for the first time but my Nitrate is at 40. Im worried about that but i just think thats because of the cycle cuz the inverts are doing way better than they were and all my "cheap" corals are doing fantastic. I got the skimmer dialed in and im blown away at the crap in that cup lol. No wonder i was having so many problems before.
I have been working on some macro shots, gonna post a couple now.

Do you have any serpent stars? They are among my favorites of the cleanup critters. Normally you will see them perched underneath a rock with an arm or two extended out waiting for some food to drift by. Glad to see that you have got your skimmer dialed in. Keep up with your regular water changes and keep your skimmer clean and your nitrates will drop.
