the one thing I hated the most about this swap was that damn 4-square.

I avoided that like the plague.

I've done the same as lazy.....sold that big combo rock that had over 70 nuke greens, 50 purple deaths, and a massive prizm favia larger than the palm of my hand.  That meant tearing out all the rock on that side of the tank as my scaping had slipped and was now on top of the rock I wanted to take out.  So I rescaped, and like it even better.  I've also added a 6"+ Blonde Naso and a small cryptic 6 line wrasse. 


In the near future I want to start running bio pellets in a recirculating reactor, but not sure which i want to buy or if I'll just DIY it.


Oh....and the Cleveland Swap hurt my wallet badly.  So DIY might be the way I go.

The stand looks great. Looks like the tank is filling up with corals.

Update on my tank. I am currently waiting on an order of live rock to come in. Decided to go back to live fiji and cure it like I did when I had my 30g.

I am currently battling GHA.  I am looking to add another fish, a long nosed hawkfish!  Also I am currently planning an upgrade to a 40 breeder.  This will include making a stand, adding a sump, and general awesomeness upgrades!

Good call, did you get direct? Ocean to box to you, not hitting a LFS rock tank?

That is good, I will do the same with my next build. Dry rock took way to long to establish and I miss all the diversity I got with it.

I think it would be a couple years before I would do an upgrade but yes at some point I would like a 8 foot long tank.

You would still need to cure it for a while from the die off in transit. Andy you will have to let us know when you get it.

Installed 5 gallon Alk and Calcium dosing jugs and picked up 2 MS 120 LED's. Not sure yet where I will use them but was a good deal and will help reduce my energy footprint.
