Looks great amazong! Really should have gotten the 150 lol.... I just set up the INT 100 and I wonder if you have this same situation....in order to get the return standpipe into the locline bulkhead, the nylon hose needs to bend a little...I was concerned this could put pressure on the bulkhead or bottom glass....I spoke with IM and they think its fine, I just wonder if its something you noticed. Here is a pic of mine

Congrats on the new plate. I have seen the build thread and water station thread and realized it was you. I got some decent scores from TCK and I'm looking forward to seeing your plate grow out!

Thanks. That plate is insane (one of the most appropriated name corals in a long time)

TCK has some serious stuff. Most vendors have a one or two things that really catch my eye. He has like a dozen.

I've been more aggressively buying, selling, and trading.

My goal was 52 new corals this year.

I'm at 13. Will be at 15 on friday.

Here is an LFS pickup.

I got this fathead dendro and a couple other frags from @Renton777.

It's getting fed twice a day. My other coral are probably starting to get jealous.

The display tank is doing really well overall.

Im still working on bringing out the color on a fee things. The pinks in my homewrecker seem to come and go.

I've switched up my feeding of benepets to every night once the lights go out.

I feed my fish and fat head dendro frozen twice a day.

I have a long list of wish listed corals. Once the weather gets nice I plan on getting more aggressive with buying selling and trading.

I picked up these 3 gallon jugs from walmart.
Very cheap. The fit perfect in the stand. 3 gallons of 2 part will last a long time. 3 gallons of kalk will last 6-7 days. I have 2 for kalk.

I have started dosing nitrates again. I may put that on my empty doser head as I'm not doing mag currently.

Any update pictures on the insane plate?
