*d2mini's new 200g Reeftastic Build*

Dennis, newish set of pics, what lens and camera? i've been drooling over the EM-1 lately, please tell me you used something else so i can come back to reality.
 
oh! haha, nah.
They look super nice but I was trying to avoid blocking my side view this time.
If I want to run MP's, my old 40's and 60's are fine.
 
Hi Dennis

Are you still using AquaticLog? What are your thoughts on it?

Thanks!

PS, Is there any major website that doesn't have a picture of one of your tanks on it?...
 
I am using it (worm5406) and I like it, I forget to update it sometimes with pictures. I need to start using it more often when I am doing water tests. That way it is right there. I have the app on my phone to be able to add quickly.
 
Wow, great thread and AMAZING build!! Following!
Thanks! :)

:lol:

I still use it, although i've been bad at updating it recently.
I think it's great. I wouldn't even know what to do with an excel doc or whatever. AL is so easy and I like being able to access it from anywhere and input parameters using my phone right in the fish room.

Also like that I can keep track of when i installed bulbs, changed carbon, etc and even get reminder emails to do that stuff.
 
Here's an FTS. :)
I finally got the last of the bigger colonies cut down and attached to the rock.
Still have some coloring up to do on some of the SPS, still getting used to the new tank.

And this shows my current bulb combo with the three stages, written at the bottom of each pic.

Ha! Boo, hiss - a FTS with an algae clip on the front glass! :D

Your set-up makes me jealous; I'm still agonizing over whether to set-up a 4' 120g or a 6' 180g. Bigger's almost always better, but unfortunately my house is quite small, so space considerations are a huge factor.

Who made your tank? Haven't quite found that while paging back through the thread.
 
Very nice picture!

Looking good!

so refreshing to see this

Thanks! :)

So you went back to the Hamilton combo unit?
Ya, well before I did the tear down and I was then able to get the light rack set up over the big tub. Meanwhile I fixed what was my only real issue with the Cebu which was the impossibility of changing bulbs while it was in my canopy due to that huge piece of glass. So I just left the glass off. :D With the rack, I never figured out how to get the second pair of t5 reflectors on there. Overall, i think that big single reflector in the Cebu does a nice job of spreading the light especially side to side.

haha, ya i saw the clip and figured I'd leave it for scale. Better than a can of diet coke sitting on the ledge. :D
The tank was built by Planet Aquariums.
It's eurobraced with two layers of glass and a plastic rim that holds screens (which I don't have yet), and the bottom is a 3 layer hybrid of pvc, glass, and abs. 1/2" glass with a Starphire front. There's pics of all that back there somewhere. :)
