Made the trip Thanks to some Very awesome and knowledgeable aquarists and their brave Kids who literally dove into the tank.
Fyi- One of the persons is member DaedalusReefs who has awesome corals and is an experienced reefer and seller.
THIS IS PHASE ONE OF TRANSFER AS NEW SKIMMER, LIGHTS AND CONTROL BOARDS WILL BE GOING IN TO THE SYSTEM OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
IM GOING ON EBAY AND PLACING BIDS ON SLEEP AS I ANTICIPATE ON GETTING NONE !!!

That pizza! Omg good food is an understatement! Lots of fun! Idk how we would have done it without the kids! That tank is HUGE!
Kids were a Value ++++. So were the Adults. Thank you again Coral Future. Such a relief and EVERYTHING is popped open and full
Swimming in your tank! Now that is COOL!
I think there was room for one more person . . .LOL

This needs to go on the r2r newsletter email.

@reefsquad

Can we make that happen?

So friggen cool @vetteguy53081 what a cool idea.

Thank you and you have no clue how much fun it was, the food breaks we took and how coordinated things were with a last minute plan. I have to emphasize, members CoralFuture and Daedalus were the best and without them - Don't know what to say. The kids are recommended for hire (LOL) as they not only had fun but were instrumental in getting these pieces sorted into the new tank.
This has been a fun build and still not done and the tank is looking great this morning

Wow that was fast and I love the scape! It looks like you broke a chunk off the edge of a reef and transplanted it in ur home. Sweetness!

Holy sh... smokes! This is awesome!!! Congrats @vetteguy53081 !!! Can't wait to see this progress! I know you don't even want to think about it now, but will this tank be going with you to Florida when the time comes?

Again congrats on the tank and making everything work! No doubt there were even more challenges, not discussed here, in getting this tank going!

It's going to Florida when the time comes - Yes. Now I have a better handle on setting it up so will be much easier

Never would have dreamed
