Pictures of my tank to share

not bad, but I would hide all the pumps and heaters etc somewhere, don't put them at the back.
 
Great job, add a solid black background behind the tank to increase visual impact and help hide the stuff. Place the heater in your sump, pull your top lights forward a little and the various tubes/siphons will almost disappear against the black background.
 
Tank pictures to share

I am not running a sump.

I have 2 aquaclear filters. One is a 150 the other is a 50.

Both on a 46 bowfront.

looks just like my tank! Well, sans the coral and tang. I would definately add a black background. I usually paint the back with flat black spray paint and be done with it, just make sure you don't get any inside the tank.
 
Its a really nice tank and I like the way you have the rock stacked, loads of caves and interest. I agree that you need some sort of back drop either black or blue. Also I dont personally find your lighting very flattering, it gives the rock and coral a very cold feel, A little to much blue in the spectrum for my taste.
 
You should get a blue background in my oppinion, and put all your pumps and heater etc... on the sides, this looks alot better, and if you start with the big things at the back corners and work your way in, it looks alot better.

Any suggestions? I have only had this tank for 4 months. The lighting came with it. (not a bad deal @ $300.00 for everything, not including stuff in tank).

I thought the Actinic light was a good thing.

I forget the specs on the tank (I am at work or I would check), but I know I am running 4 watts per gallon.

Thanks for all your advice/suggestions. It helps me as I am fairly new to all this (about a year).
