Night Howler Frag Tank Build

take out all your rock and put them in tubs next to the tank. 1/2 drain all the water :D good luck!

Great Friday activity!
 
Any ideas on how to catch and remove a cleaner shrimp from my other tank the guy is terrorizing all of the coral in my upstairs tank and i think it is due to space was gonna throw him in the frag tank since its got a lot more room for him to go but the little sucker has literally evaded all capture and isnt being banished to frag land without a fight. He has the mind set of im staying put. But i have the mind set of hes got to go lol. I built too many caves and places to dip into in the rockscape for the other tank and he is exploiting every crevice of what appears to be too good of a design. Ill be remembering this for the future thats for sure
Fish trap works for me but takes awhile for the shy ones to venture in.

Gonna try a bottle trap to start move to algae wafer in net then if none of that works gonna go ahead and remove one piece of my rock scape bad part is they are all for the most part glued and epoxied together smh well live and learn. For this build i am going to be doing acrylic rock stack outs so individual pieces can be removed also will be attempting the floating reef in half the tank so wish me luck found a cool way to do it.
 
Well went by the lfs today and found two things i couldnt pass up. 10$ torch single head starting the 3 way split. Also a duncan for 15 that is super healthy and in the process of splitting as well great frags for the frag tank grow out and not costly we will see how things go. If needed i can transition them upstairs for a short period if they arent doing well but should be a success. Already over the ugly phase things are stable and parameters look great frag tank has a water change come monday so introducing today shouldnt be an issue. Super excited for this moment. Have always wanted a duncan but they can be pretty pricey so when i saw the price had to go for it. Biggs lagoon has the drop on amazing deals and great pricing thats for sure.
 
omg that is great! a $10 torch! I cant even get that from hobbyists; stores around here all charge minimum $30/head for just about any lps.
