Moved the rest of everything over and shut down my other tank.
Corals and fish look very happy. I bet you are glad it is over.

Tank starting to look a lot “cleaner”. I had dosed 40ml of H2O2 twice daily, total of 80ml/day for a week. Started using BW Microbactor7, NeoPhos, NeoNitro and stopped dosing NoPoX. I still continue dosing Vibrant at 4ml twice a week, 4ml each dose. The only issue I’ve seen so far is my Red Planet is starting to pale a little bit, quite possibly from the H2O2 but I’ve stopped that for now. Yesterday I received the BW products and dosed 10ml MB7, 20ml NeoNitro and 40ml NeoPhos. No3 is now up to 2ppm but my Po4 is still at 0. Didn’t dose anymore NeoNitro but did dose another 40ml of NeoPhos.

Still coming along but oh so slow. Got the No3 and Po4 where they need to be now.
Slow is good. Tank is looking great!
Tank is looking good, just stumbled onto this today.
Question if you don't mind. How do you like the eshops overflow? Am getting ready to drill a frag tank was considering one, I had heard they were loud. It's hard to imagine that if you get the levels dialed in right.

It really depends on the the flow you put through it. I have a Sicce Syncra Silent 2.0 on it and it’s turned almost all the way down and the noise I get from it to me is not bad. To me it sounds like one of those indoor waterfalls. I’ve gotten it dead silent before but I didn’t like the fast flow through the sump. I’m not sure on the exact flow but it’s on 2 notches from the lowest setting.
Ok great, thanks for responding.

Well this build may be done with. The Hurricane has cut out power and it’s not expected to come back on until the 15th. Because there are only 25oish houses without power in our area we are not considered a priority to get back going. No generator and no battery backup. The longest we’ve ever been without power is 14 hours and I didn’t have any losses then. On average the most time without power has been 4-6 hours. Tank is down to 73 and I can already see tissue receding on some of the SPS. The best I can do for now is I have my gas fireplace going and taking a slotted spoon to stir the water about every 30 mins. 
I'm sorry to hear this, its tough. Good news is that you and your family are ok, that's always the most important part. Any other damage?Well this build may be done with.

Thank you. We are fine. We’re in central NC so the most we got here was knocked down trees, flooded land and downed power lines/poles.

Power came back on just now thankfully but..... I did completely lose my Sunrise Milli frag, an unknown purple Acro look rough and my Blue Tenuis looks really rough with flesh peeling off. Time will tell now to see that else I’ve lost.

Here’s what’s left of them.
Edit: Just now found my Yellow Fin Fairy Wrasse gone also. My 2 OC Clowns and my Neon Dottyback are still kicking good though.

I know a guy in your area you can get frags of some of those from no charge if you need them.
