OOOOH NOOO!:eek::downcast-face-with-sweat: What an unfortunate application of Murphy's Law. These speed bumps just don't let up, do they? But I foresee a purchase in your future, https://www.ebay.com/itm/2754900080...5mDeokH4R8eU45N9oIbrP4H1mPvO79reSjk5-CiQXoPRY
Keep at it, best of luck!

Thanks Guys, its pretty sad, but the lessons learned are valuable. Another shame is that my new build will have (sort of) 3 level heater redundancy. Apex probe, Helios probe, and Helios PTC heater all restricting it from meltdown. hell after this I might buy one of those and make it 4x!

Here you can see my partially filled tank. So far I just have rubble for the substrate, I intend to have both rubble and fine sand, my hope being that where the flow is heavier it will still leave rubble, and where it is not will stay sandy. I skipped imaging a whole bunch of steps, but I drilled my rocks, cut titanium rods to structure them, then used mortar to lock them together. not sure how it will hold up long term, but I made it so I can take large chunks of the layout individually when I need to add or remove corals. Other note, you can see how my MP10/controller are mounted behind the tank, the MP10 should be able to provide a nice surge flow through my rock, my hope being to get that ideal "Torch Sway"
