Thank you guys!
Ro, it looks bigger then it's actual size because of the close up pic.lol
Greg, that's a spaghetti leather. It has always looked like that. It isn't very big yet, and when it is upset it totally closes up. It has only been in that tank a few days. Remember leathers are the greatest pouters of our glass cages.

Thank you Moidol & WLDSHARK!
Here are a few new additions. A friend made me a preskimmer box for the remora & brackets for my sunpod so that I don't have to hang it from the ceiling where I could not get it centered over the tank..
I also added a scarlet wrasse to the mix. Thank you autoponicks, thought you might like seeing him in his new home.
I don't know where the heck the bubble algea came from, but it is here. I took a little rubble rock that had it out of the tank, and now I see it growing on my shroom rock that was no where near that little rock.

Just a little update. The spaghettie leather & xenia had a fight, and the xenia won. The spaghettie leather is no more.;(
Added some sponges from "SealifeInc.net", and a clam that was moved from my 155. Clam was moved Because I got it from a dear friend, and since we got some dwarf angels in the 155 now, I didn't want to experiment with this particular clam.
 I do have 3 other clams in the 155 with the angels.  I was told these 2 have been in a reef for quite some time, and never caused a problem. I have no reason to doubt this information, it comes from a good friend. So far they are being good little citizens. 
Back to the topic of the 20.
For those that do not remember; the reason for the change in background color is due to my cracking the tank a couple of months after its build, and had to be replaced.  So I took the opportunity to change the color since I prefer a black background anyway. 
The gobies disappeared.;( The large RBTA grew even bigger, and was sold. It has since been replaced by the tiny one you see on the back glass next to mj to the remora. Also added a Nano Koralia, and removed the other ph.
Enjoy!
