Looks good Justin!! Although I have to give you an infraction for posting photos from a phone :lol:. For those of you that don't know, Justin is a pest, I mean friend of mine 
that lives here in Nassau about 2 minutes from my house. He upgraded from a 5 gal nano to this 10 gal.
On a side note, it looks like you have some microbubbles in the tank so you might have to put the skimmer in the side compartment where I had it to cut down on them some.

Hey Krish, what do the micro bubbles cause? I was reading the aqua remora manual and it says that those are normal for a while until the skimmer breaks in or some crap like that......? but it seems like the amount of those bubbles really are decreasing since i first put the skimmer on.
I will also try to get some proper photos with a real camera for everyone, lol yes i deserve an infraction for that lol

Yea, in some cases, micro-bubbles will usually subside once the skimmer slimes up a bit. I was actually reading up on the new skimmer on the weekend and they said it produces a lot of micro-bubbles initially, but by day 3 they were gone. Guess you'll have to see. Other than it not looking too appealing, I don't think it will cause any issues. I think I did read somewhere though that they irritate the fish's gills, but not sure how much truth there is to that statement. I might have to look deeper into that

Sweet, it looks like a nice set up. Good job.
Hello Justin, welcome to RF
The 10 gallon looks good so far! IS this going to be a reef? What type of corals are you interested in?

Looks good! So I take it that you are just going to leave the skimmer sitting in the tank or are you going to move it to the side compartment and hang the lights?

Thanks, I actually was fooling with it today but there is not enough room with the a/c unit being there. The only way I see that happening is to make custom brackets to go from front to back instead of side to side. Do you like the live rock how it is now or how it was in previous pictures?
