Not sure if you still have this all set up or with the new tank going in this got dismantled to make room. When you had multiple 40s set up did they all share one sump? I am looking at setting up 2-40s and wondering if a 20 gal sump would be big enough for them to share,or do I have to go bigger.

I've been following along, and been missing my setup everytime you post an update. Thanks for keeping me in the "game". I have been thinking about upgrading my skimmer when the time comes. Would you have bought the next size bigger had the deal been there or do you feel the size you got is...

Check out the video on Bulk reef supply how they frag an anemone. Maybe you would want to tie in a seperate tank to do that and let your clowns loose in there. As far as the hammer idea if the clowns are too rough on it, it could damage the coral. You got options . : )

I have a RBT, which I have had for about two years. It started out under MH, then moved to my 180 under LEDs. A lot of moves in the last year, but still under LEDs now and doing fine. I have never been able to keep pep shrimp alive long enough, so not sure if that is the problem but I would...

Nice job, this tank looks awesome. thanks for the help and advice, going to do my pretty much the same way. It just wont be done in one week. Can't believe how fast you got this done.

Where did you get the hole saw kit from? How did it work? And do you have any advice for a first time driller of glass?

I always went with the KISS rule. Sounds like what you are planning should work. I would say you do not need the fug. JMO

I am working on it, but no luck so far. I think I stired up the sand to much during all the moving. Hopeing with a bunch of WCs and a settling in period it will go away. I only have a MD and two clowns in there so the bio load is low and I don't feed them often. It must be the camera, the...

I will be following along as well, I am thinking about setting a 40 up as a frag tank also, so I have something to put in the 180 when the time comes.

I had them set around 18" above the water line. Then I started to get the slime. So I thought if I raised them up a bit it would help. So far it is not helping. They have been that high now for only a week, so I am going to give it more time. I don't think the RBT is to happy with it. I...

Most corals seem to be doing ok at this point.

The fish are home. I think we should have an ugliest set up competion, something I would finially win. This is what happens when you move a tank 4 times in two months with no real preplan on where it should go. I just put it where it wont be in the way for as long as possible. HOPEFULLY...

Well, it is not the best of updates, but to let you all it is moving forward....slowly. I got the twins standing in the garage for now but they are at least in the right zip code. Got the RO/DI set up, with a 150gpd upgrade kit from BRS. It works great, if anybody was thinking of getting one...

Are you going to add more powerheads later for more flow or is what you have enough? Are those 60's you got on there now? BTW, this thing looks great.

Well things have been happening pretty fast around here. We sold our house in 24hrs and we have found a new one. It has a unfinished basement which means I can design the layout around the tanks, but it will take a little longer to get them set back up. We should be in the new house by Sept. 1...
