Awesome build! Your corals look amazing! Do you attribute the great coral colors to anything in particular? Have you been dosing Red sea coral colors all along? Definitely following along for this build!

It’s been awhile and life happened so I had to break down and sell the tank.
Good news is I’m back in the game and got a new IM 200 peninsula tank.
Undecided if I want to start a new thread or just add it in here. Thoughts?
Here are some pictures of the current state

Looks like I have not updated in a while.
So...
Tank now has water and I transferred the rock from a bin I had it cycling in. Everything seems to be going well but I am taking it slow.

I decided to do a substrate mix of TLF reborn and Oceans direct special grade. I added the sand first to let it settle where it would and then filled in with reborn.
