Well for those of you who haven't followed my past tank thread my 93 Marineland cube that had been up for a year got some air pockets in the seams so it was recommended to replace it. This time instead of going with another ML i decided to give Red Sea a try. I picked up the tank two weeks ago but unfortunately the bulk head that is attached to the tank was cracked and red sea specific so i couldn't replace it. I thought it would have been a nightmare getting a replacement but thanks to Rich at Aquarium Village i had a brand new replacement tank in 4 days. Now the fun begins.

Current Equipment
-2x Radion XR15 G3 Pros
-Radion XR15 G4 PRO
-Vectra M1
-2x Mp10
-Mp40
-NYOS Quantom 160
-Tunze ATO
-Apex JR
-DOS



First tank cracked Bulkhead

Moving the tank in the next month or so. Been very busy moving haven't done a water change in over a month. Phosphates are very high but sps seem to have really hit their stride.
Here are some pics.

Move went well for the most part. Didn't lose any corals but lost a few fish to a brook outbreak. Here are some updated pics.

Took a few pics over the weekend. Tank is starting to show better growth since the move. Still dialing in my alk cal and mag with the trident.
