does an ATS replace a fuge with DSB?

Coming along nicely Steve. Was this a stressful project? I noticed the glass on the table...rum and coke maybe....LOL. Looking forward to seeing it installed!

LOL...no rum and coke Henry. It was pretty easy putting it together and IF it actually works I will be very happy. Going LED definitely added to the cost and if it doesnt work out I can always buy a small tank to set up somewhere in my house and use them on that :spin1:

I tested n's and p's over the weekend. Trates are undetectable and p's are at .015 down from .035 a week earlier. Water is crystal clear!!!!!

Steve looks very good. Are you overall satisfied you went with the LEDs?

I am but I am dissapointed with the layout of the LED's which is my fault. I should have done 6 LED's on each side..3 white and 3 red. I have already been making notes for the one I will build for the upgrade tank.
