    I FINALLY had some time for photos....

    I have moved all my corals/rock/fish/inverts over a week or so after work and here and there when I could.  I took some photos tonight let me know what you think.  I am still working on somethings in the stand, clean up of cords, mounting times and some other things here and there.  I have some Current T5 retrofit fixtures coming from ebay for my sump/frag tank.

    Yeah, that stand and canopy are killer. Things are really looking good. Thanks for posting the pics. I love those duncans...they are some of my favorite corals. I got some from JJ and they are outgrowing my nano. I can't wait to see what they do when I get some good light on them.

    Thanks again for posting the pics. I look forward to seeing the next set.

    Thanks guys...

    No blue zoas, yet... well I have 3 polyps I am trying to grow out.

    Once I get the lighting for my sump I hope to get everything a little more organized under the tank.

    I am multi-tasking with my sump... I have some 24" t5 retrofit lighting comming off ebay, it should work for the task.

    For the main tank I am using my 8X54 t5 fixture, I am very happy with the look, looks much better on my 120 as compared to the 90. I have it much closter to that water so I think thats a big help.

    Well... I have learned lots about setting up my new aquarium. I have moved the skimmer to the back of the sump and move the tank return to the front of the sump with my filter sock, I also completely re-routed my return lines to accommodate my new sump lighting so I can better use it as a 'frag tank/combo thingy'. All this has made it much easier to service but its still work in progress.
