Any updates to share on this sweet custom build?
I've had lots of downs and finally lately mostly ups.
We had alot of corals bleach over the last year and algae out breaks and Dino's.
But recently I quit with aqua forest and immediatly got great results. I'm not knocking aqua forest but my tank was never happy with it and to be fair I also added gfo so it could of just been high phosphate.
Anyhow colors are returning and growth is good.
The 240 is still dry as I wasn't about to start the second one until the reef was right.
We've added some more frags and are getting ready for more.

We still need to finish the wood exterior but the hurricane and summer work schedule has been nuts.
Thanks for the interest and keep watching there's more to come.

So I've had the joy of a bulging hernia for the last few months and have finally had the most painful medical experience and recovery I've ever experienced just glad I'll soon be able to lift actual objects with out being in agony. Tank is actually better despite two water changes in three months.
I'm now hooking up a dos to automate my water changes for better stability.

Thanks for taking the time.
I will update the thread with pictures soon.
Also the auto water changes with the dos are the best investment I've made in this hobby. Changed 10 gallons in ten days with just install and setup and mixing.[emoji2]
