Man Ben you are adding some beautiful, high end pieces to your tank. Time to think generator already! Heck, I might do a vacation day and swing our other delivery (whenever it freaking makes it) by your place so I can see the tank.
Bulkhead was in the back center.
As you can see it has split in half.
Had to take off all Radions and the tile back splash.
Good thing is that my system is build so it's easy to take apart in sections in no time,
I love that Ric garden. That tank sure is packed with a bunch of nice goodies! It will be amazing when it all grows in. Glad to see the rastas and ******* are doing good. Is the gorgonia ok? In the pic he looked a little off, but maybe it was a lighting issue.
Thanks for sharing your tank

Not sure Jason.
Last week I saw some salt-creep in the back of the tank under that bulkhead, closer look was that my bulkhead was dripping slowly.
I was not gonna tighten the bulkhead with a risk of more trouble.
So I shut the system down build something over it
so my weight wasn't on the tank or stand.
Even as I tested my stand with 2 pallets of pavers on top before I put the tank on top ( pavers 6400 lbs, tank + back-splash 2300 lbs )
When I took the bulkhead off it broke almost in half. (see pic)
Well, it's all good now, not bad for a rookie reefer!
