Two new shots of the new skimmer on the tank, also...I had a BAD bryopsis problem, so i replaced all the rock/sand/coral, and started from scratch. If you have never had bryopsis........pray you never do.

DO NOT DO MY LIGHT SETUP WITH THE LED LIGHTS...it was too much and I gave my tank light shock...

 

[Jhigga15]

MPevine11, can you post a pic of the back of your tank... I want to see where you put your HQI plug in box. I want to clean under my tank...

How many pounds of rock you figure you have in there? I'm getting ready to overhaul my scape and might want to follow what you've done

Try and getting a few more nutrients in your tank. Almost all softies gain from extra nutrients.

LED Conversion

LED Conversion

Has anyone converted their HQI to LED exclusively? I have actinic LEDs on the tank now, but would like to remove the high heat of the HQI.

Very nice tank and great video. Is that unit from RapidLed?

I just finished building my sump and picked up a MagDrive 5. First the sump is going to be used for curing my new rock and then plumbed into the Biocube. I will post some pictures once I get the rock cured. I am also going to run a BRS reactor to bring my phosphates down.
