Sweet! Looks great SF. I posted a while back and asked at what point does a tank stop being FOWLR with a few corals and become a reef, and the response I got was that once corals are in (and in your case a nem as well), you're well on your way and can call it a reef :)

This is as good as it gets.
Its slow going. 65 gallon needs better filtration and maybe I'll look into a remora pro for a skimmer and a hang on back refuge before I stock anything else. I find water quality issues are more apparent in the bigger tank than in the smaller 30g I had up before. I've got 2 clowns in there, a cinammon and a tomato that I had bought really tiny and did not know they were different species but they mated up anyhow. I have a wrasse that is under the rock scavanging in this photo. The anemone is holding its own but I'm really worried for the water and hope to get a better skimmer and a refuge up soon!

What are the dimensions of your tank? Looks nice.

Its a standard 65 18 wide and 36 long 24 tall. Tall makes lighting more of an issue. I'm considering putting in a deep sand bed to build everything up higher with more rock. I shoulda done it from the start...sigh!
