LOL Doug!!! Oh come on, the Assessor is just so much nicer than a RG!
Well I finally got my @$$ in gear and did the aquascaping. From the time I started pulling corals out, rearranged all the rock (including zip ties and epoxy!!) to the time I had the corals all placed again was a whopping 8 1/2 hours!
I knew it would be a big job...
I'm not sure how many lbs of rock I left in there until I weight up what's left over (to sell), but I'm guessing I have about 80 lbs. I will be putting a bunch in the sump too. I will need to re-home the Finger Leather since it doesn't have a place anymore, so it's hard to tell but there is a double archway on the left, and then a pile on the right. There is a nice swimming area between the pile and the arch, but the Finger Leather is in the way. It will be more defined when the Finger Leather is not in there anymore. I'm fairly happy with the layout...the fish spend a lot less time hiding. Quite often the Bangaii and the Assessor are out front which is really nice!
Just before I started ripping the tank apart I took a bunch of top down photos. I don't have a box for doing top downs, so they aren't the greatest, but top downs always show the nicest color!
The next steps will be sand, get the sump running, and finish the canopy wrap and stand door. Whew! Getting there...slowly.
Without further ado...the pics! Keep in mind the tank still isn't filled, so there will be another 6" of water above the highest point of the arch.
