![]() Now for the best part of the build, live stock transfer
![]() here is the tank with everything tranferred, The tank needs alot of water to added yet, and its pretty cloudy, I also did a very crude rock scaping. ![]() The tank is completely filled, I've moved the clams around to better temporary spot. ![]() Sump filled and skimmer running, You can also see the calcium reactor and co2 cylinder, the reactor isn't hooked up and the co2 cylinder is empty ![]() ![]() Here are a few closer up shots. These picture arn't the greatest, I can't figure of the setting on my girlfriend camera. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

![]() Not alot to report.
Did my first water change yesterday 20 gallons worth. I think I will do water changes every 2 weeks, to make thing easier on myself. ![]() Small algea outbreak in the sump, however i think its due to the old bulbs in the fixture i have. Visable growth and color improvement in all my corals. Lots of coraline algea starting to grow. Plumbed in my calcium reactor, just waiting on my co2 regulator to show up. also hooked up my ATO, that has taken a huge workload off as well ![]() And as for tank parameters Ca 460 DKH 10 Mg 1320 (my tank consumes mag likes its candy) Salinity 1.026 Temp 77.4
