new camera-pics of my 90 in-wall

They still aren't the greatest, but I still figured I'd share. The first few are some full tank shots.

I don't really have the $ for Tunze right now. And, I don't know much about them. Are they just less obtrusive?

I usually feed two small doses daily. I will give a solid pinch of flakes (variety) one time and then a cube of frozen brine, mysis..I always change it up. I also have fed zooplankton. I use oyster eggs about once a week and cyclopeeze every so often. My fish do not eat Nori. I went crazy trying to find it and my tangs won't even sniff it. I think varying food choice is important.
Thanks for the feedback.

You might consider adding a blender mush as a third feeding. Your sps corals have a little bit of that BB underfed look. More food will really make them pop!
