Good looking aquarium. I hope you can upgrade or customize the filtration though.I have decided to try out this tank instead.
It looks pretty decent and has some decent reviews.
Looks like a good start. What are the droppers for?So what I am going to do is show you the purchase items I want to get for the tank. Retrofix for the hood to follow.

Let me know what you think so far.I am testing the tank out with fresh water before I dig in. Hope you can understand that. Not for the previous poster but for anyone that posts. I will be doing a retrofit for lighting and so forth. I just want to dig into this tank and see what it can do and how it handles upgrades.
It has been a long road to perfection. Crazy. We have seen so many changes over the years. Fluorescent, Metal Halide, VHO, T5, LED. Wow, been a long time. Crazy how far we have come. I was drawn back here because it is my birthday. I have posted thousands of posts; however, things have been lost over the last couple centuries. I hope I can still contribute. I have some ideas. Not sure who is left but shout out if you are.![]()
oh I completely understand. Definitely! Lots has changed. I understand completely. However, what I am doing now is making sure my brain still functions and understands the importance of lighting that is not on the tank but above it. A lighting fixture you can move away when you need to make fine adjustments. Thanks for responding.The lighting has been the single greatest upgrade for me in the past 20 years. Back in the day when I was living in an apartment with a bunch of smaller tanks breeding dwarf seahorses, high end corals and the required lighting was so overwhelming for me. Now days, a couple LED's under bluetooth control is a dream come true.

from that angle I can't see much too much glare.
I still need a vendor.

That’s a beautiful view coming off the reflection.this is my current setup. I had 3 x 90w redsea LEDs that I had acquired last year with a used tank. one of them was finicky, so I threw my 2 x 50w redsea LED's in the middle to make it a little more aesthetically pleasing. with the arm mounts, they never get in the way. so far I'm pretty happy with it...
