I know I haven't been going into depth or detail really about what I'm doing. I find that a header and visuals are how it makes sense to me. Any questions or criticisms about what I'm doing, hit me with them.

This is my first time doing most of it on my own tank from design to proof of concept to build.

Two of the three returns connected from the return pump.

Remaining return is fed by the UV outflow which is yet to be plumbed in.

The stand is sitting 3.25" off of the wall.

Centered the tank on the wall, empty leveled it, then pumped about 8" of water into it. Hip bumped it a few times on the corners letting the joints settle.

I then corrected the level again under load and siphoned the water right back out with the same hose.

Man your new tank is starting to look great !
Hope ya find the killer soon
Thank you. I'm hopeful as well. On the big transfer, I'm planning on having a 30g tote of iodine dip. Everyone will get a 30 minute bath before moving into the 180.

Came home from camping and the WWC Rainbow looked normal. A few hours later, I came up to it So happy to see me it's Literally tearing itself apart.

These videos are about 5 minutes apart.

Is it too soon to lick it?!

On a serious note, that thing is beyond gorgeous. You have some of the prettiest bubble tips… please tell me the Mohawk Rock is moving up to the 180?

I do not think mohawk rock will be invited into the 180 unfortunately but with having the new reefer tank, it may just move straight over.

Yeah buddy!! Glad to see it.


I've unfortunately got some bad news from over the weekend I was away. The beautiful aqua/green with an orange rim mushroom baby let go of its rock and sailed away. I've got the water flow Pretty down and usually know where things settle. I've been searching for probably 2 hours combined looking for it and it's nowhere to be found : (
