Circulation from the display tank upstairs to the sump was been shut down and the entire transfer took three nights of cleaning, scrubbing, and fragging of each and every piece. The following pictures are of final product as of today.

My next mini project will be turning my upstairs 165 gallon tank into a LPS/SPS tank.

Thats all folks.,,,,,,,, until I complete the upstairs tank.

SPECIAL THANKS to Anthony for all his friendship, time, dedication, committment to help me out every step of the way - I really couldn't have done it without your help.

Seeing your tank today was awe inspiring! The pics look phenominal but they still dont come close to seeing it in person! I was truly amazed how the rockwork went together and how open of a design it is. The thought and prep work sure paid off....cant wait to see the tank upstairs now!
p.s. Thanks for the blue mili frag-I was a little worried since it took 3 hrs. to complete my running around and finally getting it out of the bag....its whitish but all the polyps are out tonight-whew!
