That's right! Always leave 'em wanting more!
It's like a movie or good book! You want to know how it ends, but then you are sad that it's over! Take your time! We will keep watching!

He's my unicorn too..... ya only come this way once.... grab the unicorn when the opportunity arises.
He was mad at me.... he's so sexy when he's angry.

So, we never got the volitan moved over! The water was still gray. The salt is suppose to be this high quality salt, but I'm not liking it. I can see this morning the tank is clear. The moving bucket is ready..... I really really hopes he likes it!

Would you believe me if I said tonight?
We went to move him. Did last minute parameter checks. Salinity in the new tank 1.027.... old tank 1.020 HUH? How did that happen? Now, if the new tank was 1.020 and the old one was 1.027, I would have moved him without a second thought. So you would think we would just bring down the new tank a bit, but there's one problem. We just made 40 gallons of saltwater for the new tank's water change the night before. Not enough RO/DI left to bring it down enough (while saving enough for the evap of the other 11 tanks). Then found the TDS on the RO/DI was 10. DANG IT! Then I had to go back to work.
So.........
Tonight is THEE night..... I hope!

Updated pictures coming tomorrow of the new 100g :)
I missed you angler thread bonerac. I go over there now. I'm not an expert though, on any of these critters. I'm just someone who has kept some of them. So you can't take my word as gospel. :)

There's no light over the tank yet. Tomorrow we'll just throw the light unit on top for some pictures. Tonight I'm all alone because my husband had a gig.

Bet your glad it's done!!
How 'bout a pic of the "fashioned" contraption(just for curiosity)

Side note: I'm setting up a 30g long for a frag tank. Any opinions about putting an angler in there??
