An older pic of my 90. Now it is not so mushroom dominated. More hair algae dominated at the moment.

Very nice tank avs. What kind of lights are you running?

 

[avshockey311]

Those are just 4 65W pcs. 2 10k and 2 actinic. Since then I have changed my lighting to 6 54W t5 and that has kind of taken a toll on the mushrooms they seemed to thin out with the extra light.

[anguswu]

Now I use two giesemann Aquablue+ T5 lamp and two ATI actinics lamp.

And I also use 126 pieces LEDs(half white/half blue) that is total 42W.

Anguswu, Stunning Tank!!!!!!!!!!!!

I must ask though, what size of tank is that, and from what i read above, you use 3 x t5 (What wattage?) and 126 Led's, how is that integrated into a fluorescent lighting system?

what sort of filtration do you use and what is your maintenance schedule like.

sorry to have so many questions but what amazing colors you have in that tank,

And same to everyone else GREAT TANKS!!!!!




I am currently tankless for about 2 years now. I had a very mixed reef before,I recently decided that i would like to do do an entirely mushroom/ric tank + some GSP and xenia. Love the softies

I almost forgot, was your LED lighting DIY or purchased?
