Had to do some re-plumbing. Stinkin' braces were in the wrong place:

This is where all the corals/fish/anemones lived for awhile and weren't too happy:

Trimmed out and lit up with some of the corals in. Waiting for the Son to show up to help me with scaping:

Pics are blurry, but you get the idea. Man am I glad that's done. I ran the Magnavore over the front, back and sides in about 20 minutes to get the dust off. What a pleasure.
Thanks for all the advice, Folks!

LOOKIN FRESH! Will be following along!
Looks awesome so far Tom ! LEDs look sweet !
Well, it's been up just over a year and some of the corals have grown in pretty well. This is a mixed tank with lots of easy corals and a pile of fish. I'm enjoying using Instant Ocean. Water changes about every month or two 50g. Biopellets IMO is working well too. I'm using about a liter every six months or so. Still LED's on 50% and auto feeder. This is how old men do reef. Easy and easier. Here's some updated pics. I should have kicked up the white leds a little more.

Looking great Tom.
Wow that's a lot of RBTAs! Looks awesome!
Nicely done sir! Looks great!!
Thanks Chris!
Thanks! too many rbta's. I've stopped feeding them so they are reproducing slower, but still... Haven't figured out how to safely get them off the rock yet.
Thanks Chuck! Nothing too exciting, but fun to look at when the game goes to commercials, lol.
