He died in the old tank I just didn't clue in. He was only in the new tank for half an hour before I realized something was up. I had him for about 6 months in the old tank.

Oh sorry I thought he died in the new tank.

Also thought I'd mention if you want led lights look into the 350 kessil http://www.ecocityhydroponics.com/ke...led-light.html and the maxspect razor led lights http://www.saltysupply.com/Maxspect-...0-p/ms1149.htm. We have them at AI if you want to see them on display to get an idea of what they look like. Both are great led lights that will work well on a 60g and are about $300 cheaper then Radions, not that Radions aren't a great light, they are just really expensive. Prices are a bit different then in the links (kessil is $140 less and maxspect is $10 more) but it gives you an idea of their spectrum etc.

Yeah We were looking at ecorays.
I may hold out for a bit longer and see what's coming out.
My biocube is pending sale to a friend and I'm going to be purchasing a skimmer and a reef keeper with what comes out of it.

I figure I want the best hardwear I can afford in order to make my fishes happy.
The fancy corals can be on the back burner if I don't have a pristine set up.
also I have discovered a few things:

BAYU magnet cleaners (cheapo off brand) work wonders on half inch glass. both the mag floats and the aquion would disconnect.(the next choice was the hammerhead)

FILTER SOCKS ARE EVIL that is all.

My glass is too thick for my maxijet 1200 back to the koralia drawing board.

I've got a sink trap on my emergency drain! amazing!

The ecorays are nice too. A 60DX would be good for your 60g. Get the DX because those ones are dimmable. I have the 112DX ecorays over my 230g reef tank and I like them

You are correct!!! the door to the sump came off moving it so I wanted to finish installing the insides and putting the door back on before I posted photos!
Good lookin' tank for sure.
