Oh, well that solves the mounting issue then, doesn't it?
What kind of 13w bulb are you using in that? 6500K perhaps?
Is it fairly cheap?

I picked up some hermits and turbos. Nothing fancy. I kind of want a sea hare but its hard to justify spending $30 on a slug LOL.

so after adding a total of 30g of tank water to the new tank over the weekend, I shut down the nano. good riddance. everything is in place and everyones happy, I have 30 gallons of stand by water ATM in case of any problems but I doubt there will be any. heres a few shots of the tank, frag rack I made (no magnets yet!) and sump, I move the skimmer to the first chamber, and made the middle a refugium, where the emerald crab no lives.. far.. far away form the coral

feels great, everything went really smooth all the corals are opened and they seem to dig the lights so far. all the fish are getting along good, but the chromis are probably getting rehomed, I decided I dont want them lol.
