I really love the setup man you did an awesome job
keep up the good work and pics lol. I am still tagging along. P.S. Did you keep from cycling the new tank by using your water from your 50 gallon tank?

Thanks for looking mR.KraBbz
yes i used all of my water from my 55 and when i bought my live rock i when to the lfs and picked out live rock what had been there for a long time in is tank and had coralline algae growth i did the same to my 55 i had fish in my 55 gallon in one week no spikes i even did a low saltwater dip on the live rock for about 30 min. i used all of my live sand to and added new sand i use Microbe-lift special blend i believe that stuff works and tested my water every day two times a day and had water ready if i had to use it if a spike would happen i have three of the algaes in my sump to i ran my old sump 10 gallon at first for about two weeks to help with the main tank then made my new sump 29 gallon and started using it i just watched what i was doing
i believe that all the stuff that i did is y i did not have to cycle my tank the live rock had already cycled from my lfs the live rock was in there for 4 to 5 weeks be for i got it love my lfs and i am friends with the owner
