Time for a build thread to keep track of progress. If I don't do it now I'll probably never remember.
I've been on and off in the hobby for close to 10 years. Gifted to me by my brother when I moved back to Georgia 5+ years ago; I had been luging this Biocube around with me whenever I moved. But enough was enough, I needed some salt back in my life.
January 22nd, 2022 I setup the Biocube. Almost as soon as it was cycled to my standards, I knew I had to go bigger.
February 19th, one month after water hit the cube, I decided I would get some tester SPS for this tank to see how well they would do before I went spend crazy on expensive frags. I picked up some beautiful frags from @fishyfishy for a fair price; Walt Disney and ASD Rainbow Milli. Maybe not what most people would choose as a tester SPS, but I felt confident. While picking up the frags I had a chance to check out his tank and thought to myself 'this is a really nice size tank, and the glass is so clear'. Lucky for me, fishyfishy was moving and I was able to buy the very tank I bought frags out of just 2 weeks before.
March 7th, now I have a bigger tank so it is time to come up with a plan. First thing first, the tank was dirty and needed a heavy scrubbing. I also knew I had to remake the stand; one of my favorite views of a reef is from the top down, and I didn't want to have to use a stool. Out came the scrub brush and tools. Busy with work and life in general, It took me 3 weeks to get this tank transfer ready to be able to happen all in a day.
April 1st, just 3 months after water hit the Biocube, now everything is moved to the SCA 80.
