Depending on where you are at in the U.S., Thailand is roughly 12 hours behind us here. Given that it is currently so late at night, maybe the lights are turned off in the room...

I have the screen up but it is black, should there be something happening right now? The time stamp says 2009/07/11 11:00:53 pm?

NVM Probably too late to view anything. But got the camera up anyway!!!!!

Never mind the tank, you have transformed that entire room into a piece of art, congratulations!

OK, now back to the tank. I have a few questions regarding the rolling motor for the light rack.

From your most recent photos it appears that the motor is now located above the ceiling material. How will you service the motor in the event of a failure?

The light rack seems to be suspended from all 4 corners, yet how is that accomplished with the rolling motor? In other words, do all 4 corners connect to the motor? If so, I must have missed that detail.

When you lower the light rack, it will still be situated directly over the (very large) tank. Are you able to move the light rack in a lateral direction also, which would make bulb changes, etc. much easier.

Thanks for taking the time to address my questions.

1. There is service compartment at the back of the light rack.
2. All 4 corner slings connect to the roller in the middle which is controlled up and down by the motor.
3. The light rack has been designed to only move vertically due to limited space. But changing bulb or other maintenance is not so difficult, there is enough room between light rack and edge of the tank.

LED lighting assembled by Siam-Ocean (LED kit from Philip)

light testing

This LED lighting will be used with one of my frag tank.
I will keep non-photosynthetic corals in this tank.
Inspiration is coming from Pieter van Suijlekom's tank.

Led lighting nice red+blue=magenta light.

Interesting LED light. I think it is a great idea to use it on non-photosynthetic corals because you don't need to worry about intensity, but can focus on a pleasing color instead.

In this particular fixture, can you change the bulb colors to your liking, or are they fixed to a specific color combination?

Have you compelted the fresh water testing of your main tank system and coverted to salt yet?

 

[chingchai]

Fiji live rocks already coming. Still not enough. I guess.

Yes, you are right.
I don't need strong light for these kind of corals. Just want nice color for viewing.

I can change any color on this lighting. It is not fixed.

I already completed fresh water testing. The only equipment I need now is RO/DI unit.
They promised to install next week.

Are you still using the rock pillars you cemented together?
