Well I planned this move years ago. I originally bought this Solana when they first came out, it been sitting empty for years and I'm just getting around to putting water in it, lol. So I am setting up a new/old Solana 34. My old reef, Old Reef So, its time to start again, with something smaller and hopefully easier to maintain.
