Build a new stand for my 65 g,without the mistakes I made on my current stand and to build myself a new 30 g frag tank.The sump I already have and the lights.Finnish my LEDs.

Specs on the proposed frag tank? Acrylic, footprint?

You making your own leds from scratch? I have the bits to do a 5’ long 500w COB, 4 channel array but just need the time to do it.
 
Hello all! I’m really excited about my new project. I’m about to set up an IM 40 with a custom built white stand! I love the way the white stand looks against the blues of the tank. I plan to have my new build set up in September or October, once I gather all of my equipment. In the meantime, I’ve been checking in at this awesome place, learning from the experts. I will definitely post some pics once I get going. Happy reefing everyone!
 
Wow, great work @Cherie cook! I moved two blocks and lost 4 tangs, a foxface, & 5 other fish. It was terrible. The coral and inverts were fine. The LFS who moved the tank and fish said they’d never seen it happen before & couldn’t explain it. It was rough. I couldn’t look at the tank for a week. Now I am on month 3 with the “same” fish. They’re all healthy, but it’s still hard to believe I lost the fish I had literally grown for 2 years.
long story short, hope for the best, but know that you’re moving saltwater fish and corals. Chances are, everything doesn’t arrive alive. But you never know!
