225 at 7 weeks

[dubaygv]

Here are a couple shots from today. I still haven't finished the canopy which is why you see the towels blocking light from blinding me on the couch. Tank is about 7 weeks old and everything is actively growing. I've added a lot of frags but it still looks so empty! I'm not happy with the color of the lights (14k) so in the coming months I'll either be adding some royal blue leds or buy the radiums.

Looks great! Off to a nice start. Is that a Tunze wavebox on the left?

Lookin good, Van. Lots of things look like frags in a tank as big as a 225. Before you know it, they'll be overgrowing the tank.

My eyes have a permanent VHO image burned into them from the canopy not completely covering the lights. Need to get the upgrade started to LED Royal Blues...

Thanks! Yes, it is the 6215 model. It takes up a lot of real estate, but I'm pleased with it so far. I've wanted one for a while, but wasn't about to pay for a new one. I found a good deal on a used one and purchased it. The only downside is that my older acrylic tank as a 10" eurobrace around the edge so it inhibits the wave going back and forth. When I tested before the tank was full I was getting about a 3" wave, but since its full I get about a 1.5" wave.

Thanks Gary! Hopefully one day my tank will look like yours!
