Thanks Guys... It's been doing well...

Just some things I did with the transfer because I know some get concerned about Ammonia spikes in the water. From my 60G I use the old sand never wash it because it still houses pods and beneficial bacteria and worms that help keep the sand live. I added the sand to the bottom of the 90G added 80lbs of sand over the existing sand to keep it from spiking any Ammonia. Once all the rocks where put back it was cloudy I use the same water from my 60G and pour it into the 90G to keep any good bacteria that's still live in the water.

Once everything settled in overnight, I when to doctor fosters smith and bought a couple bottle of Special Blend- Smells pretty bad when you first open it but it all the good bacteria that's build up into the bottle. Anyhow this is another source of beneficial bacteria that is needed to keep any Ammonia spike from happening. it's been 3 weeks now and everything has been doing great seeing new growth from my SPS and the colors are coming out crazy bright. Had to redial in my doser pump also to keep my Alk and Cal levels stable again.


Some reverse Space Monsters I've had cooking up

Just wondering where did you get your 90 and with what stand? Is it a good amount of room in it? Also was your sump easy to get in from the front?

I'm thinking of down sizing from my 5ft 120 to a 90 RR. Want to be able to use all my old equipment tho.

looks like you have the move part down pretty good. Move is why I'm looking at a new tank.

Picked up the Tank and Stand from AP- The room is good enough for me but wish I went with a smaller sump the RS-200 is pretty big for the bottom of this sump unless I do a custom build Stand for it in the near future and make this stand taller than the avg 30" that it came with. But all in all I am happy with the Purchase and tank.
