Most recent updates: Holy Grail torch is doing not super hot, dipped and put in a lower flow , lower par spot. Might have been damaged in shipping, tank transfer etc, head had a crack.

Contest Hellstrollman decided to peel on me ... been in the same spot for months, growing, looking great color wise. Polyps werent out a bunch.

Maybe was the low calcium issue i had last month.... but honestly who knows. sometimes coral die.

Thanks @Troylee for guidance on the lid.

Still need to install the screens and the feed port. But the fit is smooth. No sag.
