Some pictures after messing with the tank for a bit. I really like how the last few turned out

Looking good!!! Nice work on the successful move... For future reference I'm curious how much of the tank water was re-used and how much newly mixed was needed?

Thanks man! I would say it was 50/50 so about 25 gallons of new water. I bought some Red Sea salt for the new water since I keep my alk fairly low (8-8.5 dkh). Didn't want to spike the alk using the instant ocean. I mixed the Red Sea and used some alk buffer to bring the alk up to 8.5 and filled the tank the rest of the way.

Thanks dude! Love that piece, been sitting in the Frag tank for a long time. Glad I moved it to the display.

Got home from work to a dead return pump and a chilly tank. Turns out the power supply for the jebao dc6000 died. Luckily I found a power supply from an old coralvue dc skimmer pump and it matched up perfectly. So far everything looks pretty good besides a few not so happy looking zoas. Hoping they pull through. I think this may be the final "nudge" I needed to get a vectra M1.

Looks great!

It could just be me but it looks like all your old pictures from before today aren't able to be seen
Thanks man!!! I'm not too sure about the old pictures. Hopefully it's something that can be fixed.
