Any updates on this tank?

Curious about updates as well!
We moved house which didn’t go so well and lost most of the coral and half of the fish :(

However, instead of packing it all in I decided to upgrade and have a Red Sea S-700 now. I’ll get a new tank thread going but here’s a little taster. Tank will contain the same venomous fish species but be more softie dominated :)

Looking good!
I recently did the same upgrade - D-D1200 to an S-700. How do you find the height on the S-700?

I think a heater stuck on in one of the tubs overnight the day after the move. I remember noticing the water felt very warm but other than that I couldn’t pinpoint anything else. The fish thankfully were in a separate tub but when I added everything back to the aquarium the softies basically became soup over the next two weeks and the fish got what I think was a bacterial infection.

I love the height - I’ve built tall rock structures and can’t wait to fill it top to bottom with soft corals. I’ve added a wavebox too and love the natural movement this brings.

I definitely found the height a great move, my hammers seem to love the new levels of flow too.
