Not sure why the rocks came out so purple.. Hit auto balance once, must be the new iPhone. Otherwise VGV seems to be working well. In a month I've got nitrates down from 20 to 5, po4 was .06 now .04. Might save up for a apex. DD 1ml/min peri pump is ordered so can auto carbon dose while away. No more coral will be added as I'm flat outta space, even for an abro :-(

Looking good benar, I'm also a fan of lots of stags as it looks awesome once it all grows out.
Me and the wife had a little mishap a long time ago mounting a double layered monti cap (well it was her not me) :lol: she accidentally ended up with it coral glued to her finger rather well and instead of waiting decided she could try to remove it herself. The end result was 2 single layered monti caps :debi: :lol:
Keep up the great work mate

Cheers guys, but I'm again having trouble with placement and things swaying about in the flow. Really disappointing and this has always been the bane of my reef keeping experience. The place I part time at imports from Walt smith and I'm wondering if I just get some of this
and then break apart this
to glue to the branch as holes for the plug bases. It, never, ends..

This is the only distance shot I have to show how minimal it actually is (was selling the zeo reactor)

Yea looks a bit average from a distance actually :/ .. The Walt Smith Fiji rock is looking like a real possibility now. I wonder if I can sneak on another reflector with a 150hqi hmmm
This is what I have to work with, another LumenBright won't fit in the frame unless I cut a bit out, one of these will just fit
but with my ocd and two different reflectors..eek. Might just chuck a couple par38 spotlights on each end, as much as I don't like LEDs.

A few adjustments incoming. The reflector wasn't giving me coverage on the sides. 70w halides either side weren't gonna cut it, 150w halides would cook it and 24w t5s wouldn't fit.
12 normal Blue, 12 cool white, 8 violet, ala Lani leds.
corals moved to the sand and based, awaiting the arrival of 15kg/35lbs branch rock to complete the new scape. Customs just advised me that they have cleared it and should be here in the next week. Always. Changing. My. Frikken. Mind...
some experimenting, does the colour look too fake?
