Jonty's latest Build thread (1 Viewer)

So lost couple of SPS to RTN, bit of a downer but I expected it with all the changes it doesn't help that a small bottle of Peroxide got dropped in the tank.:coolmad:
 
Hey Jon. Been out of the game for over a year and just getting back in. I don't know if you remember me but I helped move your new tank into your basement. Wow, is your tank a piece of art. Just read through the past year of your thread and was amazed by your fish choices first and foremost. Very unique. Also the growth of you SPS as the pictures progress over time is amazing. And of course your equipment room is always a site to be seen. I see have you changed/upgraded several things. The other striking thing I wanted to compliment you on is the wood façade. Jason did a beautiful job. Had to take a minute and let you know how awesome it all looks. Would love to see it in person sometime.
 
Thought I would start to document the ARID reactor progress. I lost one Red Dragon pumps in the storm this week so the reactor was on over night with no flow and had some algae build up on the sides. Cheato did not seem to suffer and I can already see good growth.

DAMN!!!

When I woke up this morning one of the first threads I looked at (after TCMAS, of course) was POTO and ZC. Is this them?
When I first saw them, I thought you'd have an interest in these fish.

One bow for each fish!
Or is there a fifth hiding hiding towards the lower right?

Well I did not go to Divers Den yesterday but I was motivated to install the inline heater I have had sitting here since January, I have had a few heaters fail over the last few years and I am hoping that this will be a more reliable solution 1500W is plenty of heat!, I also used the opportunity too replumb the UV with Sch 80 pipe and slightly change the location and valving based on learnings from my last effort.
Throwing in a couple of shots of the new tank as well.

Missed seeing you there, but at least it looks like you were productive; and that's what matters.

And it looks like your little baby harlequin is growing up fast! Very jealous!
 
Trying to pair up the Interruptus, going to be fun the resident is not happy LOL. I also added a Mitratus butterfly which is causing the Purple Tang to have kittens, hopefully it will all calm down in the next day or two.
