were u nervous about transfering everything? did u use any water from your smaller tank , that had to be a big job. you have so much , how long did it take to get that way? sorry about all the questions, just amazed people can end up with such a beautiful thing

was extremly nervous had the 75 finnaly growing nicely for about a year after I had a year of bad luck where i about quite after a tank crash killed 90 percent of everything in the tank... but finnaly it recovered and was going good so i figured it was upgrade time so alot of the corals and fish have been with me around a year the only survivors from the tank crash still with me are the mushrooms the large duressa clam and some GSP
I used almost all the water just added more base rock and a new sand bed and about 50 gallons of new water
thanks for the compliments
 
Tank looks great!!! so many new possiblities!!!!! Cant wait to see whats next
Oh yea, did you upgrade your skimmer?? and what are the lightS?

currently running a euro reef RC80 skimmer could go bigger but cost is always the issue... lights are 2 250 watt pfo pendants and 1 400 watt hamilton pendant. currently running 20 k pluarsite bulbs as a test but due to not liking the color ill be switching bulbs probably this month.
