Check the seals on the \"new\" tank... 

The old one is likely quite salvageable.  Just clean out the old silicone and re-seal.  Might be good as a backup for the new one.  :)


The 'new' tank is brand new, literally, never had water in it. :)
Been sitting in it's original box with styrofoam.

And no, if this one leaks that's it.

No she's glass, rare tank too according to Gary.
Well I can finally rest for a whole,
All my sps are and everything is hooked up and running ( except for dosers, I think I'll leave those off for a day or two)

All the lps and fish are still in my frag tank, and I'll
Move them over tmrw, but for the most part I'm
Done!  Yay....

All of the sps seem to be ok.
My Midas blenny refuse to leave a rock so he's still unaccounted for in the whole move, damn shame if I lose him :(

I'm also keeping a close eye on my linkia, she's in there as well and still moving around.

I do appreciate all the offers for help and the awesome support.
Lucky to be part of this community!

Very nice.  Sometimes bad things happen for good reasons.  Very nice glass tank!  If your sps doesn't make it, there's always fragfest for replenishment :)
