Looks like my place when I did my 155. The maid took the whole damn week off, lol. Nice tank though for sure.

So here is where I am at so far...

30G is SHUTDOWN! The transfer is underway. Emptied the LR, coral & fish to a 30G Brute trash can/5G bucket with tank water, heaters & powerheads. 2 Clowns are in the 5G alone, the other guys are in the Brute trash can...

Got the 105G up on the stand.. So far I've added about 25G of fresh SW.. I think I might be a bit short on my water supply so I am making up a new 15G batch just in case.







To be continued!

So... after a lot of work and a lot of stress yesterday, everything is in the tank and recovering. Slowly been adding fresh saltwater through out the day today and will continue until I get up to the return.. I'm waiting for my baffles to finish converting the 30G cube into my sump.. As you can see, fits like a glove. Now the hunt is on to find a skimmer short enough to do the job.






Started doing the plumbing tonight. Herbie overflow.. etc etc.. Can't get to far on the plumbing until the sump is baffled. Dunno why I made this B&W, but thought it would be a neat change.

Neat looking tank Josh! Kinda like it! The shallow depth makes it look longer! Will grow some awesome SPS I am sure!
