JonnyU Goes Bare Bottom

So ended up with a 6 bulb ATI fixture. It's been running for 3 weeks and everything colored back up. Things looking great sps really starting to grow. Love the light.

Stocked up the bar

Glassware and doors installed

Lmao the dark side is led and I will never be going back. I'm sure everyone here remembers here I'm the one pushing mh and t5 I can't run mh because rimless tank. I'm glad you finally came out and agreed that led alone is not the answer to coral growth. Yes I am going to enjoy this fixture

Can you explain why not? I got the same tank and I'm running MH/T5 combo over it.

I could find a light to match the them of my bar. I'm firm believer in lumen bright reflectors I have run all sorts of reflectors and hands down with a par meter lumen bright reflectors the best. I was at the point of making a floating canopy. I ended up with ATI as its a pretty sleek looking light

So in your case was more esthetics with the design of your bar/stand. Cause I got 2x 150W 4xT5 over the same tank and growing a mixed reef without trouble.

Well par is about 200-220 at the sand bottom. With a 6 bulbs running in the ATI about 12" above water.

So after some time I have noticed the sand I bought is to thick. It's turning dark colors and coralline. So ended up changing out sand. This time went with Fiji pink.
