It's been a while since I've checked in on your progress. Looking good!

I'm still one Sohal heavy!!!

I'm getting there! :o The cycle has taken a lot longer than expected with the extremely high nitrate levels. Now that my n03 is under 10ppm I have started moving corals over little by little. Once the fish are moved from the 80g into the DT I will pick up the sohal...hopefully next week. I dont want to introduce him to the DT yet so he will have the 80g all to himself for a little while before being moved.
 
No rush Steve. I can't believe how content he is in a 29 gallon holding tank with a Yellow Tang I can faintly hear the sirens in the background for having these two tangs in a 29 gallon. A

Anyway, he's healthy and happy and should grow to be quite a show stopper in your system. I'm keeping the Yellow...which right now is more aggressive believe it or not.

Talk to you soon.
 
Hey Steve...where did you get the LED ATS from? What do you think of it so far?

I'm still seriously thinking about getting one and think it should fit nicely in my sump.
 
The move has begun.....

The move has begun.....

Now that my n03 levels are under 10ppm I have decided to start moving my corals to the new tank. Here are a few shots taken with my dslr...need to get a steadier hand on some of them and start looking for a macro lens. Pictures were taken under led only with whites set at 25% intensity and all other colors at 45% intensity.

Enjoy......

look real good.... It will be full in no time

Thanks David! I have been moving pieces over little by little from my 80g and man I didnt realize how much I had packed in there. I still have another dozen or so frags and 4 big colony pieces to move over. Plus there's a lot that I didnt take pictures of. Is it time for a bigger tank already????? :bounce1:
 
Good pics Steve! You better keep that weed (GSP) separate on it's own little island.



You must really want a divorce eh? :D

Yeah, I am going to keep it far away from any rock. I know they grow like crazy but I really like the way they look. I think you put it best in your thread....I am just not into a total stick garden.

I made a joke about the next bigger tank to my wife the other nite and I could feel the invisible hammer repeatedly hitting me in the head!!! :crazy1:

If you do want a larger tank, you better move quickly... before your wife gets that lock on the outside of the door. It will be hard to get a larger tank into the room when your locked in!

Oh yeah.....she's made it very clear that this is it. She is all fish tanked out at this point.
 
Hey Steve can you please posts pics of your overflow box and stand pipes? I am trying to figure out how I would want mine configured.

Thanks,

Adam

Take a look at post #207 where Steve referenced some photos of the overflow.

I want to say I remember he made some modifications to it to help silence it but can't find that reference....Beananimal is the way to go IMHO!
 
I am glad you are finally making the transition slowly. Will you transfer all the fish at once or did I miss that already?
