Here's an iphone video with almost all the livestock transferred. I say almost because I spent some crazy hours detailing every rock to leave my old tank and picked off valonia, screwered the crap outta aiptasia and snapped, chopped and scraped the sps I didn't want in the new tank (mostly m. confusa and a small army of green digi). There is currently not a single bit of valonia in here I'm enjoying how that looks for at least a day I hope lol.

I tried out youtube's stabilization filter but it's made things even more choppy and spastic sorry about that!

If you watch the whole thing you'll see I've abandoned drawer slides finally in favour of a pvc light rack. It allows me to slide each light individually front-to-back and side-to-side. Lovin' it!

Still to do:

- cleanup wiring
- install dusk/dawn t5s, auto top off, doser, and new gfo/carbon reactors
- sort out access and use of the 3 water barrels

I know! I have zero clue how it all did fit in the old one lol. The tank is indeed full... the important thing though is that everything has room to grow! I have lots of LPS/zoa space but don't see many new sps frags in my future. I nearly mounted my hollywood stunner onto the wall again but chose to dedicate a very large area at the end to it. That decision didn't help any

Wow, you've done a great job! Looks amazing!

Thanks guys.

Mike the tank and eurobracing is 3/4" glass. The euros are 5" wide I think and the inner bracing around the bottom of the tank is strips of 1/2" thick glass I believe.

Dude that tank looks sick, can't believe you've already pulled that much gunk out of your tank already
