Hahahaha yes I just checked and I posted the first reply it's been great following Dave even though you don't have water in it yet :lol:

 

[terrypercula]

I promised water this week and I intend to keep that promise! Ha

Finally and I'll hold you to that promise lol

 

[terrypercula]

I still have a lot to figure out though. Where is the tank going? How am I mounting the light? And what is going in it? Minor details :lol:

 

[Fishy 1]

You could put a pair of shrimp and a tiny goby like a fire cracker goby in there and it would make a nice livestock selection.

 

[terrypercula]

No fish. I know some people do it but it's too small for fish. Definitely some kind of cool inverts though

i'd agree with no fish, the goby was just a suggestion as the firecrackers are minuscule little fish. blood shrimps are cool, but there are some beautiful shrimps out there.

I want another coral banded. I had one back in the day but when I added fish he was super aggressive so I got rid of him

Teaser shot. This light is heavy duty ha

 

[Hentz]

Wow that light is PERFECT for this tank!

I'll say. Haha it's a heavy sucker too. Anyone who has first hand experience with reef breeders products wouldn't be surprised though. Can't wait to see it in action.

Oh yeah! My Reefbreeders 24 was surprisingly heavy. Powerful sucker though! Me either. Hurry up and set it up, THEN you can take your time.:lol::dance:

Lol I still don't know where to put it!!

So after playing with my lights I'm realizing that these things will never go over 25% lol they're incredibly bright. I almost lit my 40 breeder with them :lmao:

Video is on the way by the way. I'll take a good look into these lights with everyone.

Awesome Dave you can keep what ever you want in that tank with those lights, look forward to the video

 

[terrypercula]

That's what I was looking for. I do plan on a little bit of SPS. Not much though because I'm not that into it.

 

[Fishy 1]

i agree with having some sps but not a tank dedicated to them as i find a mixed reef more interesting with sps, lps and some softies. The light looks very well built as well

I love a nice mix. I probably lean more LPS dominant as it's tough to beat the colors and movement. A tank just looks so lively packed with LPS. Though in a pico doing a lot of LPS will be tough. Some LPS can be quite aggressive.

Lps are my fav type of coral and I think a lps dominant would be great, it's a shame some of them are aggressive though
