I tried to find someplace local to build it for me. Was only able to get a quote from IPI and they were too expensive. Tried several emails to Bashsea and no response. So I ended up ordering from Advanced Acrylics. It won't be here for another 8 weeks though.
Took advantage of the 10% off Neptune Black Friday weekend sale. Picked up an AWM. Had to upgrade Apex firmware to 4.30. Was able to get all 8 AI Vega's attached. You can program the ramp on all 6 LED colors at one time so it only uses a total of 3 profiles. Ramp Up , Daylight, Ramp Down. Which is much easier than with the AI SOL where you had to have 3 profiles for each LED color. Did have an issue with the AWM not communicating to all the fixtures after everything was programed. Ended moving it to a different EB8 2 feet away and then they all worked just fine.
Still on the hunt for a MARS system to use for broodstock. Otherwise I will just build a rack and use 10g tanks from petco, the next time they have $1 gal sale.

Wow, you are doing some major upgrades. Sump design looks awesome, and great job at planning what you want to do with the space you have. I see way to many people who just start throwing a system together without any thought to the overall design and use of space who then regret it later as they wish they would have done this or that, but it is too hard to move anything once it is all done. Keep the updates coming.
Great looking system and awesome collection of corals as well. May have to make it up there to buy some frags off of you sometime.

Man... looks like you've been busy!
Sorry about the issues. I noticed convection creep with mine. The solution is to valve down the source and use solenoid valve. No issues 2 years now.

Sorry to hear about the losses. Always stinks when little things cause such big problems. Hopefully everything else holds strong and you don't lose anything else.
