Looking for some constructive suggestions on my 70. Have posted a few pictures just taken. I tried tos how the "forward mounding that has been accomplished by the gold blenny". Wonder I I should remove the extra?

The tank is a 70 gallon starfire Oceanic all glass
60 pounds of live rock
65 pounds of aragonite
24 gallon sump
Seio M620
Koralia 2
Octopus RPS-1000 Skimmer
Mag 6 return pump

Livestock:

1 Pacific Tang
2 Clowns
1 bi-color blenny
1 purple firefish
1 corcea clam
1 gold head blenny
1 tuxedo urchin
1 harelquin serpent star
1 cleaner shrimp
10 snails (various)
10 hermits

Fuzzy mushrooms
ricordea
toadstool
suncoral
zoa/mush polyp mixed rock
clove
star polyp
Duncan
Torch Coral

I am looking for a more natural look and don't know if it is just becuase I need to let the tank mature, it is only 4-5 weeks old. Aquascaping is not my strong suite.

Thanks for looking
 
To be honest with you, i think that your tank is one of the nicest i have seen in its size bracket. :) I just dont know how to improve it besides maybe rearranging the rock on the far left that is real close to the glass. jmo

good luck :)

Looks fine to me, but as they say your never done aquascaping.
How do you like your skimmer? I just received the rps2000 for my 90 and am in the beak in period.
 
The first week I was pretty frustrated as it seemed to be a bit touchy to get the skimmate to be the right viscosity. The second week I fell in love with it. I really like the ability to draing the collection cup without having to remove it except for the "every other week" cleaning.
