Full tank shot that I took tonight under the blues. I don't post as many FTS as I would like to but I will definitely try to update you guys more often on those.
In addition, I am currently in the process of organizing my fish room behind the tank to make everything look cleaner so I will be sure to post some "behind the scenes" pics in the coming weeks.
As long as I have been in the hobby, I have always wanted to create an active forum thread, where I'm updating you all and I have people following along with my tank build, commenting on different things. Therefore, I am going to try to update you guys more often so we can create some conversation in here!
Anyway, below is the FTS under some nice blues

Just read through your entire thread. Amazing corals! Great job and keep up the good work.
BIG Update:
The day before getting home from my vacation last weekend, I got a text from Apex, alerting me that there was a water leak behind the tank in the fish room. After checking the cameras and noticing a bunch of water on the floor, I texted my buddy to go over and find the source of the leak and hopefully solve the issue.
Long story short, the water on the floor came from either a leak in the seam of the frag tank or because the overflow box/pvc drain pipe on the frag tank literally clogged for a couple minutes.
Just to be overly cautious, I asked him to tear down the entire tank, siphon out all the water, and move all the corals and fish into the display tank.
So he was kind enough to take on the task: Pics below
I got home the next day and immediately checked up on everything, making sure my salinity and all parameters were in check, while organizing like the 50 frags that my buddy had put into the display from the frag tank.
So this is what the tank looks like now: A little messy and packed with corals but it's only temporary...
I then ordered a brand new frag tank from Advanced Acrylics
Dimensions: 36"x20"x10"
I'm excited to get this bad boy up and running again in a couple weeks. Will keep you guys updated.

Great looking corals. And really good growth. I saved a few to my want files lol. You need a cornbread melificent acro. It's really nice and would fit in your system well.
How are you liking the ecotech peristalic pump? Any reason you replaced the kamoer? I currently run the kamoer and love it.

HUGE UPDATE:
I feel like I haven't really shown you guys my fish room yet so I thought I would share a bunch of photos to run you through the whole setup.
Below are pics of my water change system.
Left container: Saltwater Mixing Container (105 gallons)
Right Container: RO/DI Water (65 Gallons)
The clear vinyl tubing in the pic below travels upward along the ceiling and goes into the sump. This allows us to do water changes: Turn that valve and saltwater enters tank
