Thanks. I just got the hanging kit in, for $17 shipped this is a really awesome hanging kit. I still need to wait for my other LDD driver board and IC sockets to get in and wire it all up but I wanted to see what it looked like over the tank, looks pretty good to me.

So, I honestly wasn't 100% happy with the rock in the tank, it's good rock I just wasn't completely satisfied with it so, I bought some BRS reef saver rock off BobbyV and started playing with some ideas. I came up with this, I really do like this structure alot and I still have quite a bit of rock over for me to put another smaller structure together. I'll get some more pics when it's in the tank but for now I just wanted some opinions.

The structure looks good. I would add the left structure along with the new one for your aquascape.

Affirmative, just snapped another pic. All LEDs at 15%.

Finally! Lights are up. Looks great and awesome job.

 

[CrazyEyes]

Hey thanks Mark, did you end selling off your lookdown tank or is it still up and running?

 

[mark.red]

sold! The person that sold it to me ended up buying it back...lol. I ended up with a 45 gallon rimeless cube built strictly for reef keeping. Now I'm in the process of setting up a mantis tank.

Looking great Mike !!

 

[snake1]

Tank looks good crazy.....is that all the BRS rock

 

[bmullikin1]

rock redo looks great, now get something in there.

 

[janes_mw]

^^^ +1 yes to that Mike - get something in there now!!!!

 

[CrazyEyes]

I will, I will lol. I need to get the issue with the controller fixed (I can increase the current but can't lower it) So I want to get that fixed before I toss coral in there, also need to test the water parameters to make sure everything is in check. Shouldn't be too much longer.

 

[CrazyEyes]

Yeah, it's all BRS reef saver rock from BobbyV. Here is a real quick video of the tank.

Fingers crossed, just a miami orchid frag I've had in our nano tank for a couple weeks, the tip that's broken off happened while I was dipping it. I guess we'll see what happens.

Any updates on the LEDs? That fixture is a beast! Where did you pick up the heatsinks from? Thanks.

 

[CrazyEyes]

Thanks man, the tank actually got broken down to redo, then cracked the previous tank, bought a new one, redid a few other things including the light. If you wanna check out the new light build...

The heatsinks are 8.460" x 9" T slotted heatsinks from HeatSinkUSA

 

[reefermad619]

Thanks for the reply. I'm currently tryig to decide to go the "evil cluster route", or go with some kessils. I was planing to use vero and k 8ups just like you. But the kessils would be so much easier. Again, nice build.

 

[CrazyEyes]

Yeah it's loosely based off the original evil design, he used BXRAs and Luxeon M's but it's still very similar. If you are planning on building something similar I wouldnt even consider running Kessils.
