    Looks great, so no problems with phosphates/HairAlgae leaching from the BRS pukani dry rock?
    I only ask, cause I'm still battling phosphates leaching from the dry rock I purchased over 6 months ago, and "cooked" for 3 months before adding to the tank( i have since read multiple cases of this happening with others using the pukani dry rock as well)

    So what are you using for filtration/nutrient export ? Would love to know cause this tank and that rock look GREAT!!! Keep up the good work.

    Sorry to here about your experience with the dry Pukani. However I personally experienced NONE of the issues you mentioned. I only cooked it for 2 weeks. No po4, no algae, nada! Even a year + later

    So Laura and I have moved to Adrian, and have compressed most of all our coral into the biocube ( except most the SPS, Thanks Sir P for holding them!)

    The Potters Angel and leopard wrasses will stay in my tank now untill we can upgrade the biocube, we are thinking of getting a drilled 60 cube for our mixed reef and putting our current equipment from the 46 gal bowfront on there, and then keeping the biocube for a FOWLR with the Potters as a centerpiece

    Anyways the biocube is packed with coral, heres some pics Weekly water changes of 5 gallons, most of the SPS started browning quite quickly, so I got them into another tank as quick as I could, a few are still doing well, I jsut can't keep the everything as low as they would like without a skimmer it seems

    Broke our finnex heater in the move >.< already have another one ordered, but for now, the only one I have only fits in the display lol
