    LOL thanks Kyle! :D

    Hey JB thanks! You should totally do it! I like my tank now :)

    Thanks bro!

    Yo Alex! You gotta come take a look in person!

    Im thinking to add little bit of sand around the rockwork to make it look like beach shore (I hope it makes sense), which I've seen somewhere online.

    Can you tell us all of the steps that you took? Like what did you did with the coral and fish? And how did you ensure not to contaminate the "new" tank with your existing corals?

    Heres the steps I took:
    - Start cycling/curing new dry rocks for at least a month in a Rubbermaid. (I used Zeovit additives and the MB7 to colonize bacteria)

    - When the rocks are ready, transfer all the corals and fish in several Rubbermaids. Discard old rocks, snails or crabs (I guess you can save them in a different system like i did, while you decide what to do with them).

    - Clean the emptied tank and equipment very well.

    - Place the newly cycled rocks in the tank. Fill up with fresh made water.

    - Inspect every piece that goes back in the tank, frag off suspected area (bottom part etc) if necessary. (As far as LPSs and softies go, they are still contained in the different system I mentioned above, undecided)

    - Aclimate fish.

    - Do it all as fast yet careful as possible to minimize casualty.

    Im sure I missed out some steps but you get the idea, no?

    You forgot, while you had your corals in the Rubbermaid containers, to frag current corals and donate to online friends that also are doing a Zeo system. :)

    Sorry, I haven't read the entire thread (I'd be here for days!), but I saw that you posted you're having bryopsis troubles? Have you tried dosing Magnesium? Like a **** ton of it? Worked for me, the stuff just turned yellow and melted away with no affect on fish or corals :)

    *Edit* Or did you already take care of it?
