I am pretty sure the ZEO is already doing quite a bit. I have really noticed a huge difference in color already. Too much to be coincidence. I will take some pics tomorrow.

My fear now is how the transfer to the new tank will effect things.

Any advice for how I should do this? I have about 3 weeks until the new tank gets here but I am getting nervous now. I think the new tank will be sumpless for a few days while I get everything moved over and plumbed. Does a few days without ZEO make a big difference?

I guess this will actually become a build thread too with the new tank and all.

Its around 200G...72"x30"wide and 22" high. Sump as I said will be my current display (around 120G) and I will use my 75G sump as a water change tank. ATO will be the same garbage can. Most of the other equipment will be the same. Lighting will still be dual 400 watts...switching to 20K though. Currently I have 4x80watt T5's as well (2 actinic and 2 11K bulbs) and will be adding another 2 80 watt T5's I think. I will be adding about 100 lbs. more LR.

The tank is going against the wall across from the current tanks spot and the stand is being built to make it look like an in wall tank. Except that I doubt the canopy will go all the way to the ceiling since its 14' tall
