Regarding the photo of your shelf bracket light hangers. First, I think that's a great idea. Second, the brackets do not appear to be perfectly centered on your tank. It looks like they are shifted to the left. This is either a trick caused by the angle the picture was taken from, or they really are slightly off centre. I understand that if they are off it has no practical consequence as you will hang your lights from a bar which is supported by the brackets. It's just my OCD that cringes! If it doesn't bother you, Im happy for you! It means that you are free from feeling anxious if meaningless things don't line up as they are "supposed to".

Moved about 50% of the coral over from the 29 gallon still haven't moved the 2 clowns other 3 chromis mandarin and urchin snails rest of hermits and sexy shrimps (no idea how ill catch them lol

But its coming a lot great sps has great polyp extension in the new tank and all the LPS and Zoas are out, Got a ton of pods in the fugue thanks to the cheeto from the old tank so its moving along nicely

Yea they are off a bit the studs arnt lines up... Grrr but I'm planning ok puttin a bar across them and hanging the lights from a bar so it looks more even, it looks better in person than in the pic it looks more off lol but don't have to many options cause I wanted to hit a stud with the bars
