If you do not have guards for your powerhead, you will need them. Mags like flow and may get a little close lol.
Got it. I'll get some in the mean time I'll egg crate them off so they can't get close.

I have been thoroughly enabled by you guys the last 2 weeks... im working on talking to the guy about a mag now too...
I am bad about enabling.

I even enable myself.
Steve-“Look at that”.
Steve’s Brain-“Yeah Steve, you need that for yourself”
Steve- “you know I think you are right”
Steve’s Brain-“Yup, I know I am”

Kristy (Steve’s wife)- “what did I get myself into with this nut job”

Look at my last 2 weeks, then the last comment makes sense lol.

Lights up water mixed... rinsing sand now. Going to seed with Dr tims and about 50 pounds of live rock from 2 of my tanks. This was the best I could do with the lights. For fun I'm going to stick a kessil on one side to try to keep my mag nem where I want it...
This is a 250 watt Phoenix hexarc double ended halide and 4 24w t5...

That's awesome man. My wife also lives it deep down inside but also knows she has to keep me somewhat on a leash or I will actually try to buy them all:D
She got all excited when I told her we are getting a mushroom tomorrow instead of Thursday haha

Spent the last few hours placing coral and tidying up the tank. Still lots of work to do but it is coming together. 6 months from now should be interesting. The coral are still angry but here is what it looks like. I'm pretty satisfied with the NSA rockwork. It looks better in person than the pics. Its hard to capture the depth.

Now on to setting up the nem tank so I can transfer my nems to it...

So... drove 30 minutes tore the old nem tank down and packed everything up. I need to clean wave makers and get them on the new tank. But as of now the nem and clowns are in their new home and everything seems to be going great. Love having enough live rock that I can avoid cycles and just move things...

@Eagle_Steve almost had to holler at you. That thing was stuck to the bottom of the old tank like glue... a little tickles and draining out most of the water got it to let go without having to actually force it. I hate forcing nems off... so afraid I'll hurt them.

That is a beautiful clownfish/anemone pairing! I really like those saddleback clowns and am still undecided between them or Darwin Ocellaris for my own 90-gallon reef (though leaning Ocellaris).

It's nice to see updates of your setup!
