Is it normal to use generators out there or you just installed it for the purpose of keeping a back up to keep the reef going in case of a power outage?

Thanks for the compliments! As for the generator, its not common but it should be since the are really very affordable! I got it for the tank but its really helping me everywhere!

Nice to see water in that bad boy, even if its just temporary. Sounds like you're getting real close (to actually working on the tank) now! :-)

I am and the stress is mounting! After sitting on this for so long, now I keep wondering if I've thought of everything(of course I haven't and I know that).
My builder made a few mods to my stand design (cosmetic only) but they have created some issues for how my plumbing might go. I'm going over to the house today to see what new holes have to be drilled to fit my plumbing.

Well today was the big day! The tank got moved into the new house and onto the stand. I really wasn't sure how it would go but in the end it went pretty well. Between my builder and his crew and a couple friends, everything went well.

Here are some pics:

The stress over that move has been haunting me for a bit. Glad its over and now I can focus on getting the tank plumbed. Gotta wait a little still until the fish room is complete though.

Wow! That tank looks incredible inside that stand! Great job on the design and overall look.
