Looks pretty good for a first-timer. How's it been running?
 
I agree it does look really nice for a begginer, but I never kept a marine aquarium before. The corals look healthy, dont see any bleaching on them, fish look healthy to.

No problems so far. Hopefully it stays that way, i made the mistake of not using clean enough water to start with when i first set it up so i have been doing frequent water changes with really low TDS RO water and it seems to be making a big difference.

u got sps corals and u a first timer , plus the tank is only 2 months old.. wow !!! good work

Thanks, i got the green slimer for pretty much free ($2) from a local guy shutting down his tank that i was getting some koralias from. I was worried about it but it seems to be doing pretty good.
