Video of all fish and corals in their new homes. Moving all that was not fun. On the bright side, at least I have an open space for my new tank now.

I hope everything stays going smoothly. Definitely rough on you and the corals this emergency move but you did great for an emergency. Hopefully things stay happy until the new tank arrives,

Ugh, that sucks!!! Was it due to the sump, or just that's when they expect the tank to ship?
I assumed it was because I ordered it a month after you guys but with all these sump issues now I am not sure. We will see in 6 weeks. Those other sumps are pretty expensive right? How much money back did innovative marine give you for your sump credit?

I have always used the BRS refractometer with 2 bottles of accubrate calibration fluid. I wanted to be sure so I ordered the tropic marin glass high precision hydrometer (1st one came broken from BRS). The refractometer read 35.5 or 1.0268 and the hydrometer read 1.026. Good to know the refractometer is accurate.

Somehow i only trust tropic marin glass high precision hydrometer
I wanted to double check. I had a bottle of the calibration solution go bad and I didn't notice before. That's why I use 2 bottles now. Unlikely both will go bad. I like the hydrometer but when checking you have to turn off flow. Not sure I will use it when mixing salt but I may try it.
