After breaking down the other tank, I transferred the light to this tank. Instead of high power, I'm going to try lower power and more spread and see how the SPS do.
By adding the light, I have to modify the screen tops...again :[
Friday, I added a salinity and ORP probes. I don't know about the salinity probe - it's is bit finicky to calibrate.
Today, I finished up connecting the dosing pump lines to the sump and containers.

Last week I woke up to see a Vortech MP40 pump unattached and sitting on the rocks. Inside was the remains of the RBTA. I ended up finding this replacement.
Looks good. So, what are you dosing beyond the standard 2-part? Also, where did you get the holder for the dosing tubes (the acrylic thing on the sump)?
Bummer on the BTA. Perhaps the foam sleeves would prevent that from happening again?

I am dosing 2 part, KZ bacteria and KZ carbon. The bracket is a Sea Side Aquatics dosing tube holder. Its very basic. I used rigid plastic 90ยบ sweeps to connect the dosing tubes at the bracket.
The RBTA was almost dead when I bought it. It bounced back over many weeks and looked healthy. It moved a looong way to get to the pump. I never considered it would go that far.
You may want to go closer to 30%. A PAR meter would be the best way to know for sure, talk to
@jimsflies
about joining the MMMC and getting access to a club PAR meter.
Of course I am hitting 300 PAR on my sand at the moment, so who am I to talk about being careful. LOL
