Thanks biggles. I don't really follow the names but seeing a lot of cool pieces. Space is going to be my issue!

Cheers Wrangy! Haven't really been on any forums hahaha. I literally didn't rest my water for like six months too but I'm keen to get it cranking now!

Nice tank shots Jay

My growth is pretty much the same as yours......... although my acros are stealth species so they hide their growth..........

Yep, they bore into the rock with their new growth rather than plain old upward growth. I'm pretty sure my rocks are now just thin veneers over a massive subterranean coral skeleton

Stand freshly painted with new rubber foam

Test fitted sump with pump and skimmer. I want to put new background on the display and also a white background on the bottom. Then ill plumb it all up and run for a couple of weeks with tap water and maybe some vinegar or something to make sure it still holds water lol

What size is the new tank? Or are you resurrecting the old tank?

First RO fill. Will do several of these over the next couple of weeks to get the rock nice and clean and iron out any bugs in the system.
