On the 30th of January I traded for a new tank I had recently posted a build thread for my 75 gallon tank but you know impatient reefers can be sometimes when it comes to getting a bigger tank. So here’s a small look into what I’ve been doing so far and the list that I’ve compiled.

Display
- Custom Screen Mesh Top
- 3x Ai Primes
- Automatic Feeder (Feeding Elos SV)
- 1x Maxspect XF-150 Gyre
- Magnetic Frag Rock

Livestock
- Rosy Scale Fairy Wrasse
- Yellow Tang
- Hippo Tang
- Golden Midas Blenny
- Scott's Fairy Wrasse
- Orange Band Wrasse
- 2x Frostbite Clowns
- Maroon Clown
- Harlequin Shrimp
- Cleaner Shrimp
- Tuxedo Urchin
- Sixty Snails Assorted

Corals

Since the move every is been scattered on the bottom of the tank

**I am thinking of catching the rosy scale wrasse and transferring her to Friends tank she is bigger then my yellow tang. **

Sump

- Unknown heater will hook up with Ink bird temperature controller
- 2x media cups, both running filter floss for 1 month till removal also running some activated carbon
- Jabao 12000 DC Return Pump
- SWC Extreme 180 Cone





Replacement Components - parts I replaced before setting up the tank
- Return Component
- O rings
- Bulkheads
- return tubbing ( went with silicone cause of the flexibility)

Day of the transfer

After a grueling 5 hours it was done

After 2 days of cloudiness it cleared up

So as some of you may have seen i have some crazy looking mushrooms currently. So long stort short when I first got them I ripped one mushroom off the rocks some what savagely. It’s take a little over a 3 weeks but seems to finally be all healed up and attached to a rocks.

I still have it trapped in a mushroom box just for now until it has a secure hold
