Nice pics btw, you get a new camera or something?

Nope. The last ones were off my iPhone.

These i used my Pentax W90 and dunked my hand in the tank.

Just ordered a JBJ auto top off.

Shutting down the 20.

Considering adding my green mandarin to this tank.

Hoping it goes well.

Adding a Mandarin
 
So I am shutting down my 20G mandarin tank.

She has been in that tank for about a year now, but the tank must go due to time limitations I have.

I can't handle the thought of selling her, as there is always a good chance it will go to someone who can't keep it alive.

Seeing she is healthy, and eating well, I am going to acclimate her into my 70G system.

I am adding the 30 pounds of LR from the Mandarin tank directly to my sump, as well as the Chaeto from my fuge.

Next few days will tell, and I have hopes she will be a fine addition.

Best of luck with the transition.
I can't remember ... were you adding pods to the 20? It's been awhile since I read through it.

No. The 20g had a HOB fuge. Hugely self populated.

Added a bunch more rock from my 20G system to the sump.

When the rest moves over I will have about 50-60 pounds of LR in my refugium

Adding the Chaeto from the 20G as well and a refugium light.

This tank has pods but I want to make sure my Mandarin remains happy once acclimated here.

Good times.

I love my Mandarin and can't wait to get daily viewing of her.

Automation be thy friend.

I loved my ATO so much, I'm automating dosing now.

I ordered the Marine Magic doser from Elias. Can't wait to get it and start regular dosing.

With the new doser, comes the need for a stand for said doser.

Here are a few pics from today's progress.
