Need to make more water tonight

Rock has been in a brute with power head and heater. Also have a bottle of bio spira. Do I need to QT my fish when doing a tank to tank move?

Never thought I would see this day... Sand rock and water all in! Waiting for a canopy and we are ready to rock and roll. Rock work is not done, just temporary btw

Sump will be covered by the facade I built months ago, canopy will be matching. I'll write up a quick equipment list when I have some spare time

Grabbed a canopy on Wednesday, painted it and had to figure out how to mount the lights. Use 2x1 and simple brackets to make rails. Then just drilled holes and put eye hooks in. Hopefully Sunday I will swap he 46 to the 90...

Well today was the day.... Moved the 46 over to the 90. Didn't want to put too much stress on corals and fish so focused more on getting them in and didn't worry about final resting spots. Still need to adjust my skimmer stand and I fell short on outlets for my equipment. Few pics to follow...
