    Now I am not saying to completely redo your plumbing either. But if you can unscrew the union and turn the rest around I think that would be better (if it will fit that way).

    The tank is up and running! After a very long morning, I scaped the tank with rock from my 60g (I kept it moist with wet towels and a spray bottle of SW), I cleaned my sand and put that in, I got the plumbing working, I caught all my fish and put the clowns and firefish in the new tank (my kole tang, christmas wrasse, and goby all went to the LFS), and I switched over my coral. The tank is cloudy right now. Oh, and also at the LFS I picked up a possum wrasse and I will be getting another on sunday.

    The wrasse (lame pic, tank is cloudy and I took it with my phone...great color in person)

    Great! He is very reserved and cryptic, I like it though. He will swim through all the nook and crannies in my rock, popping in and out aha I am getting a girl one today so I can have a pair ;D
