New waterbox 230

[brunpa]

I am moving my waterbox 90 to a new waterbox 230. It is a mixed reef tank with about 14 fish inverts SPS LPS and softies. Any suggestions the best way to do this? I bought new chandler tock and want to bring my old rock over as well. Also I have used continuum supplement for coral growth and have not been impressed. What does everyone feel is the best supplement for growth and color for predominant LPS tank. ?

Congrats on the new WB 230. I setup the same tank in October last year. Went from a not very mature 120 to the 230. The tank is now 7 months old and doing very well.

I used all the rock from the previous tank (about 80#) and purchased another 80# of live rock from Gulf Live Rock. I purchased 80# of dry Caribsea special grade and 80# of live sand also from GLR.

Filled the new tank with the new sand, live sand, and live rock and filled with new water. After a couple of days I transferred everything over (rock and livestock) without issue. Here’s the tank as of today. I have more detail at the beginning of my build thread linked below.

Good luck! It’s a great tank.

Thank you. Tank looks great. Mine has been delayed for months hoping to get it soon. I have tons of coral I bought anticipating at the local shop waiting for the tank

Sorry to hear. I’ve heard shipping has been very slow lately. Hope you get it soon.

Wow!!!! That’s crazy. I’d go nuts.

On another note, your 90 is jammed packed and looks great!
