Since you are using the rack without the frag plug posts to secure into the holes you may want to keep an eye on them as the snails and such will knock them off the rack & into the sand.

Oh I know I was worried about that and I only have one snail. And you can guess where he has been hanging out! The rack is touching the front pane and angled towards it a bit. I picked the safest spot for frags to fall lol. Nothing but some zoas below.

I'm going to rescue all the other frags from the sandbed to a similar rack on the other side of the tank as some of them have been looking a bit faded especially as the corals up top keeping growing and generating more shade...

Really nice!

Hope to have my order in by this weekend!

I realized today the tank's a little over a year old. It's funny my wife decorated with the same caution tape for halloween this year: it's in the before and afters lol. I also tried out my top down box... I'm not too great with it but I did a dump of the ones I took anyways.

One thing I've come to terms with (maybe it's just an issue with my tank) is that all the corals can't look their best at the same time. Some look better now than they ever have and some have dulled or faded.

Before and afters:

Top-downs:

And my gorg just cuz:

Looks amazing Brett! Would you hurry up & rip it down already? There's a massive tank in your basement that needs filling!!!

Thanks!

Was told today the skimmer's gonna arrive in 3 days! Plumbing will hopefully not be much longer either and then it's FILL time

Looks great Brett, its filling in nicely and just in time for the big move

I agree, it would be nice if all the corals looked good at one time (talking about my tank) it seems I finally get the pink poci from brownish to pink and the yellow acros have all gone greenish brown
