Can't do it, I like the ease of maintenance of the 29 gallon. Besides there is a lot of growing out to do for all those sticks of SPS in there.
Thanx for looking and commenting CK, I appreciate your opinions.

The back compartments have an Oceanic skimmer, a tray with filter floss-phosphate pad-carbon pad, a Bag of Purigen, a Bag of Chemipure Elite, a ball of Chaetomorph, ATO floats and a 359 gph Rio 6hf.
There is about 35-40 lbs. of rock, 20 lbs. of sand.
I dose B-Ionic 2 part. Prodibio. Vodka. Waiting for the MP10 Vortech to come out so I can remove the Koralia 3 and Koralia nano.

about 15 of each part daily 5 days per week. Then I do a 20 percent water change every week using Nutrisea Natural Seawater. Wish I could get free filtered sea water like you guys out on the left coase can.

Short update. It is getting warmer here and the tank has increase 1 degree already with the acrylic top on it. Even though I have all of those holes drilled in it. So I redid the pond netting to. This time I took two layers so the holes are no longer 3/8 inch square but are overlapped in a way that they are 1/2 that on a diagonal. So I have cut the area by 1/2, and instead of a square it is now a triangle. I do not believe that the Bali tiger jawfish which is larger than the yellow head jawfish will be able to get through this but will bounce off it like a trampoline if he tries to commit carpet hari kari. Plus it will let in more light, more gas exchange and of course there will be more evaporation. That will not be a problem as I have an ATO.
Also I built a little house for the jawfish from some PVC tube with a piece of barnacle over the entrance. The jawfish never did go in there but the tailspot blenny has today moved in. Pictures to come.
