My buddy, Chris Lewis (Out of the Blue Creations) then came over and worked on the sump and plumbing.

Room was quite tight in the left corner so we decided not to add a gate valve.
Working on the return plumbing...

Boy, they are bright!

The tank is now ready for water...

Looking good...Glad to see someone else joining the LED club!.

Thanks! I am still in the MH club for now as I am still in the planning stage in how to hang three Radions. I have two Ecotech Radion hanging kits and Martin of Modular LED custom made a hanging bracket that will hold all three Radions together but I am uncertain of how to hang this over my tank. I will most likely open to others for their opinion when that time comes as I will provide my details then.

Here is another update...

water and live rocks in the tank. I have acquired a few more rocks (man made live rocks) from Blue World Aquariums...

I have decided to run the MH over the tank for now until I have figured out how I am going to hang the Radions...

Stay tune for more to follow soon...

Wow im a week behind, Looks great Wayne although your going to need a bigger tank once all those frags grow in. is that the alpha 170?

Looks great!!

that looks like alot of work placing all those frags!!

Very nice Wayne - glad to see you have some room for more frags.:wink:
Seriously though, can't wait to see it completed & the corals grown out.

Nope, it is the 200 and thanks!

Thank you and I am still working on the frags...

Gregg, thank you! Now that I have a journal set up here I will be able to see the frags grow over time. Many thanks to you! Will be posting an update in the near future. I've had the flu and has set me back two weeks. The parameters are out a bit as I've not had the time to set up the doser. Still working and planning in how to hang the three radions... Until then the MH remain.
