The tank move and a few random photos:

Update!
I moved the tank on the 13th. It was only a 10 mile move, but it still took about 4.5 hours once all was said and done.

Monti that grew onto back wall:


Empty tank


All the buckets!


Nearly everything back in the tank:


Corals are stressed; is this zooxanthellae that is being expelled?


Bacterial bloom 2 days after move:


Pissed off elegance:

The elegance partially bleached during mag dosing to kill bryopsis; hopefully the combination of the mag. dosing and the move won't be too much.


Everything looks much better this morning; the tank has cleared up and corals are getting back to normal.
I'm still getting everything set up; I've just got the lights, pumps, heater, and skimmer plugged in to a powerstrip. I'm setting up my new Apex tonight

    Yes, that is zooxanthellae being expelled by the zoas. They can do this when stressed or when excess has built up within the coral. It can grow more, so don't worry about that.
