Its moving day!

Ok everyone, today is the the day that we move the 90 gallon reef tank. T-mines 1 hour and 47 Minuets.

If you could send us some good vibes,prayers,and what ever else you thing would help us.

I did not sleep well,4 hour of sleep is all I got. I am VERY worried that something HORRIBLE will happen to the tank as we are trying to move it,bottom of the tank shattering,one of the sides shattering,we kill the whole thing in 3 week,and on and on and on,to every end that you can think of. SO any vibes,prayer and what ever else you "send" will be greatly appreciated.

And on top of having to move this monster tank, we're having an open house tomorrow in honor of Andy's graduation from High School!! (I'm his mom IRL).

Sooooo, while all the boys in this household are moving reefs, I get to try and get everything ready for the EIGHTY people we have coming over tomorrow!!

Good luck with the tank move and graduation party!
And remember... take a deep breath! Once the tank is moved and the party gets started, relax and enjoy yourself! It sounds like you will have earned it!!

Andy, everything will go smooth....I've moved my salt tank from CA to AZ in the back of a moving truck and it all worked out.....Just enjoy setting it all up and making it beautiful......I can't wait to see the finished product!

Congratulations on the graduation Andy! I'm proud of you....

All went well! We got done putting it up about 3 hours ago.

All is well,the fish are hiding,the coral is all shut-up but some of the zoas are opening up a bit.

Other than that most is done.

Sorry

MAN WHAT A DAY!!!!
The open house was a BLAST!!! 99% of the people that we invited came. The food was a hit. We also had some strawberry that where GOOD and they were gone before you knew it.

As for the saltwater tank,all is well. All the fish are a wee bit banged up from the move but they all ate this morning.
We lost 2 chromis,we think that the 1 healthy chromis finished off the 2 that where weak,as to not draw attention from "predators".

I should go clean up the HUGE mess that is leftover from the party.

Oh and here are some pictures of the tank.Enjoy. The trigger is looking better than it was.
