Oh yeah. That's what we've been waiting for. Congratulations. I'm sure your thrilled. That sir is a nice truck to. [emoji106][emoji106]
What caused the problems was that Reef Savvy external overflow box ,, the overflow’s on that box sit lower in the tank compared to a standard overflow box ,, that made the scape to high in the tank ,, My SPS corals at the top of the scape would have had only 1 inch of water over them ,,
Well, have most of the plumbing dry fitted ,, need to pick up a few more fittings in the morning.
The scape caused a few problems ,, it’s all good nowWhat caused the problems was that Reef Savvy external overflow box ,, the overflow’s on that box sit lower in the tank compared to a standard overflow box ,, that made the scape to high in the tank ,, My SPS corals at the top of the scape would have had only 1 inch of water over them ,,
The solution to the problem was to take a band saw to the feet of the scape and have the scape sit lower in the tank ,, problem solved
I will get the plumbing done in the next couple of days ,,, then it’s time for water ,,



You soon found a solution to that problem lol. Now there's a man who has a goal insight [emoji123] [emoji123]. Don't work to fast. I did that. Now having to wait weeeeeks for the cycle [emoji23]. Fortunately for me I've found something els to build while I wait.Well, have most of the plumbing dry fitted ,, need to pick up a few more fittings in the morning.

Tank looks amazing!
Tank has cleared up ,, will get ya'll a updated pic later today. I spent most of the day yesterday trying to get the 4 Radions into the reef link ,, was having a problem ,, as a last resort before I decided it was over my head and couldn't figure out what the problem was ,, I decided to unplug the reef link and plug it back in ,,, that was the problem ,, went smoothly after that ,, just took me 6 hours to figure that out
not in any hurry for frags ,, I am figuring at least 30 days out before shipping ,, will see what Adam suggest ,, figured I would at least get the ball rolling on a frag pack ,, I want a large frag pack ,, I have a lot of places to mount SPS frags ,, I need enough to at least not make the scape look bare lol I bought a SPS frag pack from AV99 a couple of months before I decided to take the old tank down ,, those frags are doing good in a friends tank ,, I lost one or two
I still have 8 or 9 frags ,, I also have got a SPS frag or two from friends that I can use for test pieces ,, I dosed the tank with a bottle of Dr Tims yesterday ,, will wait a week and go get the LFS to do a water test ,, see where the tank is at ,, no fish in the tank right now ,, figured I would wait till after that water test ,, I ordered a nice screen top from Artfully Acrylic yesterday ,, 6 to 8 weeks to get it in though
I have a bunch of zoas that can go into the tank ,, also have a few really nice Chalices ,, I need to get a tester chalice before I put the nice ones in the tank ,,
not sure how its going to work out ,, will just have to see ,, I mounted both of the Mp40s on the back glass ,, one on either side of that overflow box ,, about 5 or 6 inches away from the box and down a bit ,, no power heads on the sides of the tank ,, at least at this time ,, that may have to change though ,, will see,,This is how I have mine set up. Although no live stock yet, it does give a very nice flow pattern from when I tested with micro bubbles. But time will tell.
