Leave it to reefkeepers to let "kinky plumbing" mean a bad thing.

No wait .. kinky plumbing in a bathroom would still be a bad thing. I have no idea why I thought that comment would be funny. It's clearly not, and anyone who suggests otherwise has their mind on other things. Not me. Nope, nosiree, not me.

So my kinky plumbing is all up and working tonight. Transferred over all of the corals and one anemone tonight. Things look happy so far. Messed around with the skimmer abit as I had to create a riser stand for it. And that is enough for one night. Need to do some fine tuning and transfer the fish - perhaps tomorrow... No time for pics tonight.

Dude new tank adrenaline! Good call that is exactly what it is. All-nighters aren't even hard when you're on that. I was on that for a LONG time.

Fine tuned the skimmer abit and finally got it producing foam. Having some pretty nasty microbubbles in the display??? Hoping the need to work their way out as the system settles in?? Air in the lines??? Anyway, other than that, everything is running well. Corals all look pretty good. They are just tossed in at the bottom to acclimate them to MH lights so no real neat organization yet. Still some nasty green hair algae growing! Turbos are eating it ...slowly. May need to rent a seahare in abit!

Few pics of the sump and tank with coral in.
