Very nice tank. I like the neon green leather. I have one also, cool coral. Nice fish room. I cant wait to have a larger house so I can have one.

What type and how many LED fixtures are you running over the 225?

 

[saltyfish808]

4 120w 50/50 fixtures run the 225 and 2 of the same fixtures are on my frag tank

Curious what you run your BRS reactors with?

Like all the open space - plenty of swimming space and room for those corals to grown in.

What kind of lighting did you have before LED's? How did the corals change once you changed lighting?

I had 125 gallon with 3x 250 halides and 8x 39 watt t5's, The corals have better color in my opinion and about the same growth. The best noticeable difference was the 60$ I save a month in electricity not running a chiller and halides. There is nothing better than LED actinic color! :wave:
