Yes! Great meeting last night. Do you have the link to order the hoodies?

Ha! Yeah wasn’t cheap, but at least he didn’t pick the three headed one!

We had a great time at CFM last night! I brought my kids and they had so much fun picking out coral and collecting stickers ;) We got a few zoas, a really unique mushroom, my 5th grade daughter found a rock flower anemone that she named bluey and my 7th grader found a really cool yellow...

Yeah time to fire up the second protein skimmer ….

A few pics of the tank. Still a lot of gluing left to do ;) Robert you need to rename this thread ...

Oh the new tank is really coming along! I’ll try to get some good pics, although gads it is so big all the coral frags look so tiny. All the custom paneling to enclose the stand and button it all up should be delivered in four to six weeks.

All serious work takes place in Crocs Looking good! Are you going to have any access from the living room or plan to clean the front from in the garage?

Not the final rock work, but coming along! Coral should start to go in in about a week. Lighting wise running 10 A360s. Still waiting on all the cabinetry and wanescoating. Will eventually be enclosed on the top and bottom so the only way to see between the rooms is through the tank.

Ha! Yes Robert should rename the thread. The first tank was 180, this new tank is closer to 500 Dimensions 121” x 30” x 31”

Plumbing done and fully connected into the existing system! Yesterday Ansel and Robert (but mostly Ansel) loaded in 1,000 lbs of sand and rock.

36” tall! Time to breakout the snorkel ….

Move in day!

For the lighting are you going to create a chase in the wall to conceal the cables? Or add the electrical above the tank and go with an enclosed hood?

Stand installed, electrical done, plumbing stubbed out. Just waiting on the Sheetrock crew to patch everything up then we’ll move in big Bertha

I It does, although the Neptune pumps are powered by a separate four pronged connector that are a bit on the fragile side. There is a YouTube video about using a soldering iron to replace a capacitor that gets burned out when the pump goes. A little more adventure than I was up for For the...

My son’s Neptune Systems COR15 pump died after two years and fried the EB832 on his fresh water tank. The failure turned all the outlets on so his sump ended up getting cooked by the heaters, luckily the fish were fine since the pump was dead. I now really like having the pump as just a regular...

Definitely orange. I had a red Haddoni before that due to a bad salt batch didn’t make it. The importer said they only get in a couple of orange ones per year. Here is another terrible pic under natural light that shows the color a little better.

Yeah I had heard they like to burrow down into the substrate. I have a 2” sand bed. I can add more in the area I would like it to stay if you think it would help. Really trying to avoid having him pull a Godzilla in the tank Here are some pics. The first was taken by the seller. Under my light...

Well I might have made a bit of a noob mistake. On Black Friday I found a great deal on a beautiful Haddoni online. The description said 7 - 8” but this guy is much bigger, also a crazy bright orange which is wild. The base foot in the QT tank is at least 3” tall. I have one spot in our tank...
