Wow.... That is an awesome pic. Actually makes me want to get some Acros.
 
Ok, so now that've i've shown you my old 40g, now comesthe transfer to the new 120g.. I bought the 120 used, it came with a stand and misc crap.. The idea behind all this was.. Move old 40g off the wall.. set up new 120 in its place and let is go through its cycle before transfering all my coral into it in hopes of not losing anything.

so here we go..

picked up the new 120..

stand was WAY too tall so i cut it down and beefed it up a little..

Next came moving the 40g off the wall.. I drained the tank into trash cans, moved it and refilled it.. Did a large water change on it the next day since the corals produced a ton of slime..
