Your build is coming along great man as expected. Can't wait to see your SPS start filling out now that you have all the livestock transferred over. I also love how clean and organized the fishroom looks.

That PVC light rail is a slick idea, despite being plagiarized apparently. Do you have the electrical cords plumbed through the PVC as I wasn't able to spot them in your video?

Thanks =) Lol I thought my video would show what a disaster the fishroom is currently. I got the doser hooked up yesterday and need to address that rat's nest of suspended wiring now. The wires for the lights rest on top of the back eurobrace and I'm going to anchor them to the 1.5" pvc return that's also resting on it. All the powerhead cords are there too. I might saw another piece of 1.5" in halg lengthwise to form a nice canal for the cords to sit in.

I'm excited to see what sme of these frags can do now. Most were not getting the light they needed and some are already showing a bit more colour.

Everyone! And by that I mean fish, corals, aiptasia and algae =)

I've got better access to deal with the latter. Have been trying to epoxy-attack my free nems as I find them and wiggle loose new valonia and net it.

My only loss has been the elegance which was already going sideways in the 97. Had to yank it before it totally melted.

Here's a video showing my tailspot happy in one of his many perches. I dedicate this one to Greg =)

For dusk/dawn I actually backlight the reef. Looks nicer in person you can see some of the colour pop a bit more. Using only a pair of 24" t5s for a falloff effect.

Brett is that imperial or us gallons I feel you got ripped off and maybe you should start a thread or send an email to the manufacturer and get that taken care of
