    Well, it's been 3 weeks since I upgaded from the 14 gal. Biocube. Thought I would show the new tank so far. Skimmer is a skimming and the ATO is a topping off;

    Looking great. 8)
    Love the coral selection there. They look very happy too. You said you have a Marineland LED and a Stunner strip on this?

    looking good UncleJed

    best thing about upgrades IMO
    You get really nice purple rockwork, but the tank walls and equipment are still immaculate

    Yes, a Marineland Reef capable and I attached a Stunner strip for dusk/dawn. I also have the Ecoxotic Module over it.
    Thanks.

    Hi UncleJed

    I mean that the rock looks great, as its purple/ pink
    and yet the tank walls and plastics etc look perfect, as they are not covered in coraline

    in my set up, the rocks are pink / purple but so is everything else bar the front viewing panel

    I like the look of aged rockwork in a brand new set up - its cool IMO

    Steve

    How do you fit all that over it? Got a pic? It's obviously working well - just can't visualize this.

    Chuckle, chuckle...I think you missed "the tank is only 3 weeks old".
