some corals seem to be reviving now they are placed in this tank with the lighting and the better water flow in it
and the anemone looks happier with its regular tenants back available

first water.
Had about 2 inches of water run in the tank to have a check on the bulkheads on the bottom of the tank for leaks.
Will be filling up the tank in a bout 1 hour more to have a complete leak test in the system. stay tuned.

had the tank filled up with regular water and thought to try out the waveboxes.
little clips of the waveboxes.
wave set at 0.30sec
and at 0.75sec
only issue I have with it all is the noise it produces.
not sure on how to get this corrected? any advise?

I always love the initial water tests....Looks very good.....I'd freshwater run the tank for a couple days, and even though you didn't see any leaks at the bulkheads double check them periodically everyday just to verify all is good. At times the leaks could be so small and not real evident, and they don't always so up right away.

figured out that its better not to run the pump from 0-100 but rather 0-40 strength
makes as good as a wave and makes much less noise.
