I just bought a 72 bow front, so question is... Is there anything you'd do differently? As in rock work/lighting/etc. Your tank looks great. Just thought I'd throw in a "devil's advocate" question...

Absolutely would do things differently! Number one would be I'd drill the tank. Number two would be I'd do more research about which fish I put in based on their reef compatability. Had a heck of a time getting a bicolour blenny out that was scraping sps. Rock work is all based on preference and I personally like the mountain of rocks rather than a few islands. I think the mountain looks better on this tank dimension. T5 lighting is definitely the way fo go if you're going sps. I have done a lot of things differently along the way and have settled with methods and equipment now that I believe to be the best for my tank.
