That must have been some project putting it in under the stand. Man awesome progress, can’t wait to see it up and running!

I've not updated but here's where I'm at. Still making water. Almost done with the plumbing. Started mouting the controller etc. Getting really close now. 3/4 way full.

Update on tank. Corals and fish are in. Diatom bloom just about devoured by the cleanup crew. Still adjusting flow and lighting. Need to cut in a couple more vents to have less on the swing.

Few more corals after 1 month

The tank is in grow out, drinking 1 liter every 3 to 4 days of 2 part. Dana come by and took some par readings. I had to move my birdsnest to the shaded areas. We are getting 200 in the sand and close to 500 on the top shelf pieces. We've got 37 fish. I'll do a list and post it later. Thanks to Dave we've got a very nice collection of acros growing. Nearly 70 different sps frags. Lots of LPs too. Still making changes to flow and lighting but overall pleased.
