Thanks! Sold off pretty much 90% corals from previous 120g but kept frags of each one. I kepted them in my 55g frag tank which I turned into display for 5-6 months but ran out of space pretty quickly. So my downsizing plan went out the window and this tank was born. I transfered the contents to this current tank.

Yes. I'm sure your girlfriend was super excited to hear that you were downsizing...until you got another tank to go with the frag tank.

More coral pics please. We know you have the goodies!

Awesome pics Mike :biggrin:

How do you (did you before your tank change) deal with all the SPS encroaching/fighting?

Amazing tank Mike, I look forward to seeing it in person sometime. I'm going to start saving up for a "visit Mike" day haha.

Glad it showed up in one pc =)

I went with 60x60 Bosch T-slot for the stand from Surrey fluid power. Just a little bit overkill

Marine Starboard for the sump to relax on.

Everything was through Surrey fluid. Starboard wasn't cut correctly and had to take time off work to recut it. Sh*t happens... Alot. Oh well

Mike's 120 shallow reef

Looks awesome. How much did the extruded aluminum stand cost to build?
