I found a third hydra. It's on the way and i cant wait to get it up and running :)
I picked up some new coral recently thanks to @Reef-Tank
Some didnt make the trip which was totally my fault, but the others are coloring up nicely and I hope to see some good growth soon :)

Brs had brand new ones for 250 or something on friday or something. The new line drove the prices down big time. Really thinking about sellin some coral and getting 2 more myself.

Hope u got a good deal on it! More coverage is always a plus.

Ugh I'll take reef tank plumbing over this any day! Drain pipe under the bathroom sink broke. It literally deteriorated. And the last owners did a cobble job. Instead of removing the pipe they cut it off and used a rubber coupler to reconnect the sink to the main drain. It was full of nastiness and STUNK!

This is what it should look like all done :)

Unfortunately the other bathroom sink is the same way, going to have to do that one as well :-/

How are you liking the BB?
Loving it. No algae, no cyano, snails and hermits can keep the bottom clean so much easier

How much of an obstruction is the center brace on the middle hydra?
You can definitely see a shadow from the center brace, but the t5s fill it in nicely
