Sorry to hear about all your problems. Good to hear you are starting once more instead of packing it in. That would have been the easy route.
I might have missed something, but do you think this happened because you re used some of your sand? There was a hint of that earlier.

Glad to here you're going to redo the tank Doug. That stench is unbelievable. It was bad enough my wife called me at work and told me but when I came in the door, nearly knocked me over.

SPS RTN, blah!!!

Look forward to your rebuild. Good luck.

It is kinda hard to see the remnants of some of my coral on the rock but there was no way I gonna get rid of some of the pieces that I have(way to cool), so I will have to live with it

dude, this tank move has scared me away from wanting to upgrade(at least while Im renting)......in fact Im not sure Im gonna plumb in the clam tank now

Im really not 100% positive what caused the crash......could have been the sand......could have been something else, there was a lot of life under a lot of stress......

Heres what V2 looks like......I reused the PVC substructure I had for the overhangs but changed the layout of them in the tank.....

Wow... quite the difference from that last time I saw the tank...

That new scape looks pretty slick though... a bit more open, then again that's how the first one started and you just gradually filled it with more rock to accommodate more SPS..

Just think man.. This time next year you will be WELL on your way back to glory, and you will have fun getting there.

We should grab a beer and catch up!
