The 280 is finally going to get set up.. (1 Viewer)

You dead?

Witness protection.


So here is the deal. I will be moving, I was not too sure if I was going to or not and I was hoping that I wouldn't have to. But as things go, I am. I am going to have to move the 280. THe biggest lesson I learned is I do not need this much extra water volume. a little more is OK this much more is overkill and I will be scaling back when I set the system up again.

How to do it... That is going to be my next hurdle. the 90 may be the temp home for everything unless I can come up with a better plan. But it will not get set up again once the transfer is complete. Only the 280 is going online. It is going to be a real hectic time for me so there will not be a build (rebuild) thread. One day there will just be new pictures of the 280 in its new home.
 
Please don't take my manhole away, it seems like only yesterday the three of us snuggled up in your manhole for an evening of....manholing.

Good luck with the move. I've personally come to the same realization, extra water volume adds little value if ya ain't got nothing in it.

We're there only 3? it felt like more......
 
Good to hear from you again Frank. Are you still moving? If you need any help, let me know :). It's hard for us to see if you decide to take down your 280. Such a nice set up.
 
But will you still have a manhole?

Good luck with the move. Holler out if you need help, there are people that will come running.
 
Its a long drive for me but I'm willing to help with the transfer. Maybe your Manhole will become a ManMansion in your new home.

Totally agree about the extra water volume. There is some stability to be had, but I'm rocking <20 gallons and the sps corals are still easily doable.
 
Been wondering where ya been - where/when you moving to?

Not 100% sure yet

Not only that it makes water changes less effective

Thanks guys if I need an extra hand I will let ya know :)
 
Well. I am thinking that I may need to drag a bunch of stuff out of storage and start putting some of this together again.

lol I think when you're watching videos of what's new in equipment and start drooling. You might have an itch to scratch. If anyone from back then is still in the here and now I may need a few extra hands to get this stuff downstairs.
So looking for volunteers :)
 
Good to see you’re back Frank . Lmk if you need some help. I’m free mostly on Sunday.
