Luckily I had help from my good friend and LFS store employee, he helped me with the really hard work of picking up the tank and bringing it in to my place.

Also had some help from my beautiful wife, she helped so much, I'm a lucky guy. She supports my hobby and enjoys it as well.

Here she is scooping up my fish to acclimate them into the new tank

Here's the aquascape I created after I added the new 60 pounds of Caribsea Fiji Pink sand

Here's an FTS. I promise I will have better pics soon, sorry for the Windex effect lol

Here's some pics of my sump, it's simple but should be effective.
Drain into the filter sock

Reef Octopus NWB110 Skimmer

Here's my 18 watt UV and ATO system. I soft plumbed the return for now, I needed to transfer everything and didn't really want to waste time cutting tubes and pvc, so it works and it cost me $5 to do since I had the hose from my previous build lol

Big thanks to Got Corals for the lamp for my refugium and the big ball of chaeto they got me.
