Thanks man it looks alot nicer in person.
Very nice setup!! What are the dimensions of your stand and also the canopy. I am having a tank built that will be 60"l x 24"w x 28.5"h. I am real curious how high the canopy is (14"?). I need some height (12?) but like the slimmer look like yours.
Also I have been reading up on LEDS and wanted to know how the programmability is with the Photon"s? Looks awesome by the way!

Hey dan .... I can't remember the exact measurements ill have to re measure but the stand is deff a good 36-40" tall and the canopy is a good 15" tall it has the piano fold for easy cleaning access .... love it.
The photons I have are the W series. I can't say enough about these lights. They have no screen on the light, they come with a remote with a screen on that it looks like a phone and its wireless. What I love about these lights is if you have 2 units they automatically sync up to 1 remote so whatever you set your custom light cycle for on the remote both lights program too.
And Logan at reef breeders is always there if you need him, the power supply went on one of the lights, he sent me one out instantly and I had it a day or 2 later but when I got it usps lost the supply so all I got was an empty package! so I tell Logan and he has one sent out to me again the next morning.

Scopus and clown tang

Fish stock is small mainly just the same fish from the 120. Only new is clown tang. Also have pair of clowns, Sixline, Midas blenny, royal grammar, Splendid dottyback, goldhead goby. I had a hoevens wrasse but he seemed to be shy when I put him in new display, burried himself and I saw him once a week maybe. Lately haven't seen him at all so I think he is gone but when I first got him he literally went unseen for 2-3 months and then one day he was out. Hoping he still is there cause he is not only my fav fish but my longest lasting fish of 4 years

So I decided to add a UV sterilizer I have had things like ich wipe out my whole tank before so I wanted something to help keep the parasite population to a minimum
I got the emperor aquatics 80 watt unit, thing came in and its huge lol 45x14 I had to have a plan B on where to put it. So I decided to redo my closet tank area as seen in prior pages of this thread. I got a smaller tank and I moved the ATO to under the sump area. Here is the new look with UV running
