Thanks! The first two shots are of the new system I took yesterday. Things are going great after a temporary downset. Raising my Ca and alk left me with a pH spike that STN'd about half of my acros. About 3/4 of the damage from that has since healed. All my sps are coloring up as well, just not show quality yet, the tips of most are still not the pink, purple, and blue I expect. I'd say within another 2 weeks if I can keep things stable, I'll be back on the bandwagon again.

As far as the tank itself, its been going through some positive changes as well. Added a 30g tank and baffled it to be my sump to increase my water volume by 15g+, added a ball valve to the overflow, and just waiting on some extra cash to get the extra tubing I need to finalize the plumbing for my chiller. Right now I have my chiller plumbed in temporarily in the front since I didnt have long enough hoses. I have it baffled so it keeps a consistant water level for my skimmer, then hits the bubble trap to the rest of my media/filters. Compared to my old bass akwards sump, what a difference!!

Glad to hear that you didn't loose any corals. Waiting for them to color up is much easier to take.

The coral shots are awesome.
Also I wanted to let you know the Zoos I got from you are doing great... so far the green one is still green.

Indeed! Although I still ended up having to part ways with a few nice colonies. The new tank specs took away 6 square inches of realestate that I just could not accomodate everything with. But change is great and finally a trip to home depot allowed me to stop my tank from making that flushing toilet sound

Auntbeeze: Thank you Great to hear the fragglings doing well :thumbsup:

Space providing. Not sure exactly when though, no immediate plans.
