Have another full tank shot as well?
Got the bottom panels on today. Hopefully too will start to go up tomorrow.

I love your fish selection!
Nice, i see you got Tim to help with the install.Not much of an update. Ended up getting 3 Orphek Atlanik V4’s for lighting. Going to figure out how to rig up on light bar with a pulley system. At least that’s the plan for now.
Front panel done. Just need side and top doors done, then send to paint. Slow but sure progress.
There was an interesting video BRS did talking about fuge lighting compared to the power of your lighting in the tank. The A80 probably is not powerful enough to get your chaeto to out compete nuisance algae in the display. Additionally with no Bio-load other than the live sand I doubt the chaeto had any nutrients to absorb and grow. Are you ghost feeding anything or dosing nitrate? I ran into the same issue with two types of macro algae melting before realizing I just didn't have enough nutrients in the tank for it to grow properly.
Hope the clowns made the transition well!
looks great!
we are most definitely on parallel builds as i just added my first fish to the main display (2 clowns) and going to get the next wave of fish in the QT tomorrow. i will add more pictures to my build thread tonight..
the fish look so small in the big tanks dont they? that will all change
tank is looking good, i also just put rock and cheato in refug and waiting for it to start growing...i had the kessil h80's set to low and i think on wrong spectrum so i changed and will see how that does. i also was running my main display lights (ap700's ) to long and to bright and started to get some spots so tweaked that a bit...Some updates on the tank.
I broke down and bought at Kessil A380. I also started dosing phosphate and I’m happy to report that the algae in the refugium is growing like weeds now. The algae is soaking up every bit of phosphate I add. I couldn’t be more pleased on how that’s working out.
My chocolate tang is doing well in QT. My LFS got me a new Naso to replace the one that I lost. This new one is quite a bit larger than I expected. It’s at least 6” long and beautiful. Nice and fat.
Also started on the doors on top of the tank. They need some adjustments, but they are looking good so far. Things are really coming along!
The wood stand your smaller tank in the background is on, is absolutely beautiful.
Great updates the canopy/doors looking good.
