How are you liking the plasma lights now that you've had them awhile?

 

[Reefnut2010]

Interesting build. The top braces,stand and top covers add a nice stainless steel look to the tank. Beautiful !! All I can add is....you should have hidden the returns in the LR . It would have added to the overall clean look of the tank.

looks sweet!!

stray light doesnt have a price on those plasma lights.

are we lookin at $$$ or $$$$? haha

im kinda interested in them as ive never heard of them till i saw your tank.
and i dont see them for sale anywhere.

nice stand

 

[cubsare1]

I saw their horticulture ones are about $1450 a piece, so I would assume around the same

 

[Mr. Winters]

i wonder how the cost is justified and how much coverage the light offers.

 

[cubsare1]

this is from their product brochure: http://www.straylightoptical.com/res/seashine/pdf/aquarium-brochure.pdf
a 90 degree reflector looks like 2.5-3ft

 

[Mr. Winters]

that doesnt seem like a lot for 1500$ especially when leds are only 500 for a similar unit. im only in the planning stages buy my tank will be 4 ft front to back. for that price i shouldnt need supplements. hell it should do my laundry too.

Found your thread last night needless to say went to bed too late,I could not stop. Talk about thinking out side the box from lights to outside sump/cistern wow. If you have the time I would love to see an update and if you don't mind a few questions,did you build the room out side to hold the reactors and protean skimmer also how to you keep the tank below 82 degrees in Georgia with out a chiller? Again WOW

Very Nice. Love the straylight's . Are you able to raise them any higher I would love to see what kind of spread you get by raising them 24-36 off the water.

Very nice build!However you cheated a little as it is not exactly rimless, you just used a eurobracing alternative!However the rimless club will forgive you and I still cant put my jaws in their place!!!!!!!!!


keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!




PS:We need more pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great tank and build thread. I really like how clean the screens look. I always thought that it might interfere with the lighting. Looks great!
