Right now all the frags still in my tank look okay but you never know. Actually, I got the most frags from you, 13 and I still have 12, those are some strong frags .

I had decided to buy new live rock anyway so I'm going to take the opportunity to tear down the tank and wipe everything down. I'm also going to be getting the new skimmer next month I hope, new sump and new pump like I talked to you about. I got my new lights and chiller already so I'm movin along. And then I'm going to treat all my frags in a smaller tank before they go back into the display. So by the end of next month the tank should be where I want it to be. Thanks for asking.

How's the rearranging going with your tank?

I don't have an automatic top off right now, but that will change once I redo that tank though.

Good stuff on the lumenarcs! They will really improve you halide performance. They are the main reason I would go with SE bulbs.
