Maybe Eli can get new tops? (Or did you already check into that..)

Water test on the water changing system was ridiculously successful! !! Would have been a full 40 gallon water change in under 4 minutes! No leaks!

grats on the water change system. Best money A person can spend on equipment imho.

Yours looks very well thought out, If you ever have the desire to get rid of the electrical cord run through your house, I have been having good success with the wemo system from belkin. Just turn on and off my ro pump using my phone.

You have a lot of prime spots for corals there. Good work

Ooh! Looking great. Are you going to scrape the bottom or just let the coraline take it over?

You know, I was just having this conversation with a buddy while looking at the tank. And I have no idea!!!!! The thing about coraline is that it will look more patchy than fully covered...but on the other hand scraping it often will be a nuisance.

Things are looking great.

If it were me, and for no reason in particular, but I'd probably let the coraline be on the bottom.

Thats what im thinking..... and mainly from a pure laziness perspective. lol.

I just think if coraline spreads as fast as it has in all my other setups, i'd be razor-blading it every day trying to keep it clean. I think i'll leave it and just keep it as debris free as possible. Which so far is working great. With 2 WP40's situated on opposing ends, i'm getting a gyre like flow in the tank which only has two tiny noticeable dead spots where everything is accumulating. That happens to be in between the rock structures which is nice and accessible.

+1 for the lazy method.
