My original evo had a little leak in it. Saltwateraquariums.com sent me a replacement. Love that company!!!

I took this opportunity to upgrade my pump to the Syncra 1.0. I also put a wood air stone nezt ro the pump intake. Im going to give the microbubble scrubbing a shot.

I put a mp10wqd in for more flow.

Im letting the corals get use to the new tank then i will be putting them on the rocks.

One question to chuckfu5. Why run that kessil so! Close? No need for spread?

Thank you. Recently switched to the ai prime hd and did some better aquascaping. Reactor still going strong with trace elements.

Up and running! Any suggestions on lighting? I want to upgrade. Will taking lid off promote the water to evaporate faster?

The lid on the fluval 13.5 when removed will definitely cause a higher evaporation rate since it's enclosed. We upgraded the lights so the lid was removed. I prefer the open top but you can purchase mesh type lids for jumpers.

Awesome! Thanks! Any place in particular for the mesh lids?
