I agree the tank is looking good. the only thing I would add is 1 or 2 more powerheads, it looks like you only have 1 right now. I would try to shoot for 20x turnover in the display tank.

also, with a closed glass top, you need to monitor temperature closely. This also cuts down on the gas exchange in the water.

I swear I'm not the tang police, but that tank is too small for that tang. And though I realize the chances of you finding him a new home are probably low based of what one person on RC says, just be careful with him if you do try and keep him. He is an herbivore by nature so you need to make sure he is eating lots of dried seaweed or he may starve. GL!
