    Just finished the doors for the stand and some aquascaping. I need to do trim work on the stand which you can probably see in the pics. Also, I just bought an extension cord so I can move the power strips inside the stand. The skimmer also needs to be raised I just haven't gotten to that yet. Soon time to start adding more livestock!

    Kermit.... I used to have my canister in/out in my main DT but last week after I got the chaeto in my fuge I ran my canister through the sump/fuge (my plan for A WHILE). The way I see it is.... the stronger beneficial bacteria that grow in the canister will be able to make it into the DT through my return pump/overflow. I have big plans for the fuge and am SLOWLY adding more livestock. As I mentioned before I lost EVERYTHING except the black clown in the pics when I transferred everything from my 90 gal. (now sump) to my 120 reef ready tank. THANK YOU for recognizing my rock work...... I fortunately work from home and my tank is in the next room so I spent about 7 hours balancing the rock to get the way it is now. I'm not 100% sure I like the way the right side is done just because I got kinda sick of it and just stacked them but I'm sure one day soon I'll get into it again and work on it. I am hoping my tank grows as successful as some of the tanks I've seen here!!!


    Thanks Again! The input is very helpful!:)
