new waterbox 130,4 reef

[Fredrxn]

Hello guys... I ordered the waterbox reef 130.4 in white... It will be replacing my jbj 65 aio....this will be full build thread.... I will using some of the equipment from the jbj.. New tank will be a mixed reef....still waiting on tank and equipment...... Thinking I should use my old rockscape because the rock is over 1 year old... To help cycle the new tank.... But the rock has a lot of coral on them... Would that be a bad move to put them into the new tank with the corals on the rock? Or should I just start over agean? I don't like my current rockscape... What do u guys think?

I dig the aqua scape. I just got the waterbox 50.3 aio this past Tuesdays, still need set up a build thread for it.
One thing after 2nd look, maybe on the left side put some rock in front to match the right side, but thats just my 2cents
