needed to take tank down for kitchen remodel, didn't feel like taking it down and reset up and do it again . also getting back to building a AR-15 and getting a suppressor. I'm keeping most of my gear from 105 to jump back in later.

Not bad on price for just the can. You will be looking at a final price of about $2500 once all fees are done. Normally what most pay.

What do you plan on housing in the Nuvo? Sps LPS softies?

well I made the mistake of going to Elegant Reef. The hydra 26 isn't in yet but he had everything else I needed in stock as usual picked up Ai director(for tony) ext rails and tank mount kit, smaller heater, chemi pure blue. still waiting on my InTank media baskets and I think I'm done.....hopefully
took down the hydra as i didn't trust the mount

tank has settled in, cycle was quick never registered ammonia(missed it). so far happy with media baskets, cheato ball double in size and had to trim back all ready. very happy with chemipure blue performance, running phos guard also. the light has blown me away, great color, adjustments are easy and can still move this to a bigger tank later ;). ATO is online now so tank is on cruise control.
