On my tank I could just see the mess I would have with no euro brace I have lots of water always on the underside but I'm running hi flow.

Well being that I worked a 22 hour shift and kids won't let me sleep I took the opertunity to swap tanks. It took about 4 hours. All coral was dipped in RPS then put into basin with carbon powerhead and heater

Clams and fish went into a bucket. Only loss was a shrimp which for some reason was lathargic from the moment I turned on the lights

Sump is pretty chaotic as I need to buy a new in sump skimmer and ato is yet to be hooked up. Also new to build a electrical panal.

This build is killing it with simplicity, and I'm a big fan of the top down aquascape.
Cant wait to see it grow out and purple up!
