Killer! That Goni is bigger than my whole tank
So I had a hell of a Saturday. Wife and I went to the store to get some stuff for fathers day and when we came home my return pump was throwing bubbles up into the display. I quickly take off my doors and see that the water level was low so I turned off the pump really quick and started to look around. The bottom of my stand was completely filled with water and there is a huge crack all the way across the back of sump. I called Mark at AW and I was lucky they had a sump in stock, not really what I wanted but in a pinch what can you do. I got it home and had to modify the plumbing a little but got it all plumbed in. I finally finished with everything around 1am, crazy day but thankfully everything turned out ok. I still have some cord management to take care of later but for right now it will have to do. Here is a picture the sump then I started playing with the camera on my phone and took some top down pics, I am very impressed with how they came out.
Here is a picture of the old sump with the crack. I already repaired one on the other side, should have took that as a sign and just went ahead and bought a new one at that time.
Here is the new one
And now for some coral pics.
Very nice buddy things look healthy colors are great
Sorry to hear about the leak. If you want to build a custom sump just order the acrylic i can help you put it together.

Sorry to hear about the leak. I am glad it turned out OK at the end.
Pretty weird that the sump developed cracks like that. There must have been some stress on it. A good wet/dry vac is a reefing equipment that has always been my best friend in situations like these.
Nice corals and great coloration.
That's sucks bro.
Corals looks great though.
I see you got some new sticks and your pearlberry

Thanks bro. Ya, its not exactly an ORA Pearlberry but is crazy close and is on the higher end range of coral, its that Sexy Coral piece Victor was selling as a Pearlberry on crack. I have a nice size colony that I am going to be posting soon to recoup some of the cost of the new sump.
