Hahahaha! To be honest I first had to confirm where Fiji was - I was almost sure, but not 100%. Based on Atlantic currents I think the oil could show up in the UK before it would ever get to Fiji, but I hope that doesn't happen.

Thanks to you all.
You know what; the corals are getting better and better after changing stock skimmer with Deltec Mc 500. I did no modification to the back chamber (no cutting etc). Just placed it on a DIY stand with available hight. My Nıtrate used to read around 10 but after a week it reduced to 5 with Salifert test No3 test.
Here some pictures for your easy consideration (sorry for the flash)

Hi Glenn;
Almost 1,5 years and too many changes; kids, work, city etc. I moved my RSM and regret during transportation I lost several of my corals but luckly no fish died. Changed yellow sailfin tang with one small blue and yellow tang. Corals are trying to recover for the last 8 months most of them bleached ( due to lighting ) but now they are doing fine.
Also trying to find a reliable new LFS to have new habitants. Nevertheless a picture of last status of my RSM which was taken today. See you soon...

Hi Glenn,
Hope you and your family all doing fine. Regret the RSM 250 is geting too small for the fish and RSM 650 not available in Turkey. So I am about to start a new project within couple of months.
My LFS buddy just completed a new project for his another customer and mine will be almost someting like this.
