Tank looks good! I like the more open look in a nano. Took me until yesterday to figure that out.

Most of the corals are on rock also and I have 3 pieces in the 95 that are moving into this tank when I determine if it's going to cycle so It will probably get a little crowded before I'm finished

Mines crowded but I kept everything low.

You might get a little cycle from the new sand but it should be minimal.

It was cured but these 2 pieces sat out for an hour or so and then sat in cold SW for a while while I cleaned the tank and moved my computer

There are a few dead bristle worms floating in the tank this morning

That might make it cycle. You should know inside a few days though.

I'm hoping either the abuse of LR or a cycle will kill off any remaining flat works I didn't FW dip these 2 pieces of LR but I did FW dip all the rubble and all the corals (except the rock the urchin was on)

Probably will. I kind of did the same thing yesterday. Knowing I was treating for red bugs, I went ahead and ordered a acro from Drs Foster and Smith. Set it to arrive at the same time I was doing a treatment so I didn't have to do a separate dip.

These 3 pieces need to come into the 5.5 the 95 is too deep for me to Joes juice all the aptasia and there is no room in the 24 so I'll probably add these next work on the aptasia then add back in some of the other corals

good luck with all that aptaisia. I have my fingers crossed that the flat worms are gone.
