Nice progression! Your corner tank isn’t drilled with an overflow? Why is the heater in the tank rather than a sump?

Aww man that’s a bummer. I thought those corner tanks were always drilled. I have one for my gold fish if you remember. Are you planning an overflow kit and sump or just running sumpless?

Im still tweaking a bit and moving corals around to where they will do best turned up my flow in the tank the other night and changed the wave mode a bit on my powerheads have a nice gentle wave going and things r starting to really plump up and the anemone has stayed put so far so thats a positive i will try to update as i get some more pieces of coral im looking to add to the collection
 
Nice! Filling that thing up! Great size pieces.
