Moved a few more corals to the big tank.

Ordered a cleanup crew finally. Went out of the usual order on that aspect. Adding them after the fish.

I thought the black and white paly picture was neat :)

Hey @Dsnakes, I used to live in Maysville and worked in New Bern back in the early 90s. Where abouts are you on the Outer Banks?
New Bern, wife and I use to live in Greenville and hit New Bern quite a bit.

We live in Manteo on Roanoke Island. Sometimes I miss living up at the beach in Kill Devil Hills, but Manteo is a bit more quiet which is nice to raise the kiddos. Just a 5 minute drive to the beach.

Small world Dsnakes use to live in the town in Kansas I live in now. LOL
It is a very small world :)
 
Took this picture this morning before heading out the door. Helping a family member move from Chesapeake to Georgia. Will be home tomorrow night. Fingers crossed they will be ok when we get home. Have someone feeding them tonight and first thing in the morning.

We made it back last night and all was well. Going to move a chalice and torch over today.

I’ve never had a torch before. I received one as a freebie. From what I’ve read, sandbed is the best way to isolate their aggression.

Chalice placement is next on my list to research.
 
Torch on a rock so it doesn’t get knocked over in sand. Decent amount of flow in this spot.

Chalice higher up on a back rock. Might need to go lower when I upgrade the lights. For now it’s in a lower light spot with lower flow.
