Tank Entry

As many of you know I had decided to do a restart on my tank and correct earlier mistakes/lack of knowledge from when I started my tank 2 years ago. Several of my corals were dead or dying and I had placed corals into my tank that I later realized was a mistake (Xenia, blue clove polyps, ect...) I looped my pump return from my sump back into my sump again, kept the skimmer running, maintained a constant temperature, maintained choeto in the refugium, and kept the biopellet reactor operational to ...

Well I thought I would give a quick update on what was going on with my tank restart.

I ordered 50lbs of keylargo rock from Marco Rock that has arrived.

I purchased a 10 gallon tank and filled it up to use as my frag tank, painted the back glass, made a frag rack out of light diffuser, installed a heater, 30 gallon rated biowheel, added a nano korelia, added led lighting, waited for the temperature to level out and started moving over frags.

First off if i do this my equipment and tank would remain the same but ...

I looked over at my tank just a minute ago and was wondering what I am looking at.

Well just thought I would give a little quick update. My wife got home to my alarm flashing on my reef keeper in alarm 1 Saturday which is what I have set for temperature. When that alarm gets tripped it shuts of my lights and heater (for sure) and flashes until the temperature is back with in range. Well unfortunately the A/C went out in the house (the compressor has a hole in the side of it) and since my wife wouldn't let me spend the money for a chiller (I don't blame her they aren't exactly ...
