Always better to have more than enough rock so you have plenty of options for scaping.
Like it, Thanks for sharing the pictures.

I appreciate the shout out and appreciation my friend, You have done all the work and put forth the time invested into this build.
My answers, text, explaining things and offering up what ever I can to make things easier is all a part of why I am involved with LaRC.
I am glad to have helped you out in any way that I did, Now its a matter of time till you are getting all that new gear and clean tank dirty !
Looks pristine and great, then a bit ugly (naturally), then it will start to become a full on ecosystem back to being great !
Let me know when you are ready for some nuggets
Added some under cabinet lighting this evening for when I need to do some work in the sump area . Also got a small cabinet to put my doser and other equipment into. Just need to add some skins on the sides. It will do for now till I'm able to make something to my liking.

Let me know when you are ready to set your light schedule / intensity
I'll come over and bring the coral hand saw for you.

Got a few things out of the sump area and Into the cabinet today. Just need to do some wire management.
Very nice!
Indeed, looks very nice.
Tank is coming along well I suppose ?

Coming along pretty good @BluewaterLa softies & LPS growing pretty good. Some of the sps is growing and has some nice color, others are growing but not much in color. Wondering if it's too much light or what not. The few pieces with not much color are directly under the radion. The others with nice color are of too the side or lower in the tank!

Thankyou Bobby! It's a work in progress.
Corals look happy. Awesome
Looks great! You have done some very skilled work with that plumbing. The cabinet looks very clean. That favia you got from me is looking super fat and happy! I am sorry to say I somehow missed viewing this wonderful thread for quite some time. Now I am following along more closely.

Peacock Mantis Shrimp
Corals look happy Pretty sure I have that Favia on the left, maybe ,, mine is a lot smaller though, maybe the size of a quarter ,, it was cheap, I think I paid $16 for it ,, its one of my favorite pieces in the tank though its a silverish grey with bright green polyps ,,

I wish my dragon soul would get to that size.
