Got everything moved over from 90 to 125 last night. Most interesting part was netting the kole tang. She splashed enough water in anger to completely get my face and hair wet.

only thing lost was a RFA, got buried in the sand somewhere. Was only 1-2” in diameter. Poor little fellow.

tank/stand 350
Lights 700 (600 on orphek 100 on 4b
Plumbing 50
Return 100
Lumber for stand and hood 150
Overflow box in sump 100
Live rock 200
Inkbird, pumps, misc items from trades and FB marketplace and R2R fellows

other than the $600 I spent on my orphek lights that I love, this is a great example of reefing on a budget. No expensive toys no exuberant amount of gadgets and gizmos. It doesn’t have to be “super” expensive if you take your time. Can set up a good sized aquarium for less than 1500. If you think about it, will spend as much or more on dog, cat, therapy, etc
