Yes I am. But I guess since everything is already transfered over, I am still not starting from the beginning with ZEO. I would love to do a ZEO tank one day where I start from the cycle with it. It would be interesting to see how that would go. I have ZERO cyano now (will take some shots soon as the lights come on) and will dose coral snow and lots of BAK right away this time. I am going to do my best to make sure I don't get cyano this time. I have been reading on the ZEO forum about how NOT to get cyano and it seems that starting with the snow right away and going really easy on the ZEOstart works. Because I have also noticed that for most people running ZEO, its not easy to rid the tank of cyano after its started. I was able to do it a few weeks back with the old tank but I don't know if I would get that lucky again. One of the things that I think helped was that I stopped feeding greasy foods like mysis (which is apparently just like candy to the fish anyways). I just feed fresh clams, prawns, mussels, squid all blended together, as well as pellets and nori. I do have to feed some mysis again though because I picked up a new copperband from a Canreef member that is eating mysis. I also have a new Orange spotted goby that only seems interested in mysis. |

Not that much to see under the stand. Its a real mess of cords right now but here we go:
The doors slide on drawer sliders like I said earlier. Thanks Lastlight for this idea! ![]() The right side. Plumbing, skimmer, ZEO reactor...thats it. ![]() The left side. Ballast with fans, ATO can and my controller will be somewhere in that mess. ![]() The nicest thing about ZEO so far has been the lack of equipment I have only run ZEO a few months but its the best thing I have done for my tanks. Obviously it has helped the nutrient levels in the tank and colored up the corals nicely but as an added bonus, it eliminated so much equipment from my sump! Its nice not to have to worry about much. |

Awesome work Justin! A lot cleaner than before! What size of vinyl tubing are you using? It looks pretty small. Just make sure it can handle your return flow.
What happened to your desk? |

Maybe I should find bigger vinyl? My desk is on the other side of the room now. I will put together a 360 degree view of the room once the lights come on. |

Few pictures with the lights on. I would say about half the coral browned after the move
Hopefully the color will come back with time and good water. Oh and ZEO of course...I know that will help get this thing looking good again!![]() ![]() ![]() |

Wow! Look how unlevel the stand is! Maybe I should fix that? (check the waterline)

The newest additions.
First a Goby. Not named yet but I think we have narrowed it down to a few. ![]() And...A Copperband from a member here (Johncody). I wasn't going to try another until I found one that I was more certain was not cyanide caught but when he told me hes had it for a while and its eating well, I couldn't resist. It really is a healthy fish. Eats Nori even! Very friendly little guy. He was nipping my hand last night when I was moving things around in the tank ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
