Thanks for another great article Mike. I'm glad it went well.
Would like to hear about lighting programs you're running.

Nice article Mike. I am in the process of setting up a 900L WaterBox and moving over from a 350L RedSea tank so there were many points to ponder and things to think of whilst I was reading it. Hopefully your article will make the move much smoother for me.

Thanks for the write up. I enjoyed the read.
how are the mounts for the light attached to the tank? it looks like they are just sitting to two right angle plates of glass

Hi there.
Absolutely fantastic tank. Question for you
I am currently upgrading from a 50 gallon to a 100 gallon. Exciting times.
I have done all my sump, wave machines etc.
The sand and new live rock has gone in which has been curing since October.
I am cycling my new tank. Only on stage one at present.
How come you didn't need to cycle and more or less start again.?
Am I doing something wrong.

I went from 240 to a 360g and used existing rock/corals and 80 gallons of aged water and Dr Tims start up bacteria. All went smooth
