It’s very helpful to see continual updates on the same tank all in one thread, shows challenges and rebounds over time = very helpful for making predictions in other systems

I picked up a used GHL Profilux 4 controller about 2 weeks ago. Found this nice stereo cabinet at the local thrift store to use as a tank matching controller cabinet. Love that it has 3 levels with the bottom 2 levels behind a glass door. (100% dry for controller, mostly dry for doser, and then wet on the bottom). Also has open storage on both sides where I can up my dry food and test kits.

Still have to work out where to put the Powerbar, and how to extend the power cables on a few things, but over all very happy. My overall goal with this is to have all power and control in this cabinet, and no plugs in the sump. We'll see if it can be worked out.

New FTS and corals shots. Coral all shot through my Flipper 5" magnifier and at 3.7 zoom.

Tank updates:
1. Running Polyfilter due to Tin detect in ICP
2. Still working on stabilizing Alk. Been fluctuation between 8 and 9 dKH
3. All plugs rerouted to controller cabinet. No plugs under tank.
4. Only wires visible in tank are for 2 gyres. SOW-8 wavemakers removed as no longer needed. Gyres move plenty of water.

This is a very nice tank! Also, I don’t know if anyone has given you an identification on the wrasse yet however it’s a Halichoeres melanurus
