Everyone checking out their new digs, L-R, high to low:  Conan, Davey, Charles (up high on the coral), Becca (under Charles), Berry (food dish) and Chelsea on the right hand side of coral):

Side shot along back of tank showing new large cave installed under second level:

Second side shot showing full length up to second level:

Davey telling Conan, “Just a little higher and we’ll be to the beach by moonrise...  oh wait, we live at the beach now!

One of our small Ecuadorians, S’mores, taking a swim.  After we redid the tank, he went under water, along the bottom of the basin , then out to the other end of the tank and back into the basin again about 4 times. He then did a full lap around the outside of the basin-- he was really digging it!

You can see three caves in this photo, the two PVC caves we had before, and now the new extra large Haba-Hut log turned cave in the center under the driftwood arch.   You can barely see the top of the third cave just above the end of the left hand arm of the coral tree:

A photo of my C. perlatus enjoying his own personal crab jacuzzi!  Note he is submerged up to his eyeballs!  He does this quite often, sometimes spending several minutes to well over an hour partially submerged. He tends to hang out on the side of the basin where the filter output is, creating a wave motion effect:
