Mixed 500 gal. A.G.E. build. 12 unit LED Radion lights.

Really looking forward to seeing this grow in. The Radions look amazing.

You'll have to take monthly update shots. in a year that would be a cool slide show.

Looks GREAT! This is why I need to start my grow out tank before putting DT in place. I'll have mainly frags starting out since I've not had any coral for 8-9 months I have a few mushrooms that were on live rock in fuge I recently setup

Thanks
It does have good and bad points. The good is, look how good the DT looks.
The bad is, it worries me to death. That's alot of work and time I just put into a new tank.

My tank will be here in about three weeks and I'm already having anxiety about getting in the house and down the stairs. I have a call into a moving company my lfs uses for big tank deliveries. My LFS said it would probably be about $300...might be worth it.

Worth every penny. If the moving company drops it they are insured. If your friends drop it they run. The moving company charged me $400

Your tank looks amazing! I absolutely love the corals and your fish are phenomenal. Once your corals start to really grow large you will have a masterpiece.

What kind of lens do you have? I need to get a lens for close ups on my camera.

 

[david00061]

canon macro 100mm image stabilization. I got it with the image stabilization. If you get it without the image stabilization it is about $400 cheaper

Ouch, 1K. Nice lens!

I need to sell my tunzes, that will give me a good excuse to get a new lens.
