It's been a long expensive and fun. A ton of ups and downs. But what the hell! That is reefing.<a href="http://s1331.photobucket.com/user/paulywalnuts2013/media/E848E379-C9DE-4E92-B8AD-110BAB31<a href="http://s1331.photobucket.com/user/paulywalnuts2013/media/CD825396-F8E7-4461-803C-B63ADE297FB9_zpsefgczv6h.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1331.photobucket.com/albums/w596/paulywalnuts2013/CD825396-F8E7-4461-803C-B63ADE297FB9_zpsefgczv6h.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo CD825396-F8E7-4461-803C-B63ADE297FB9_zpsefgczv6h.jpg"/></a>C2E7_zpsf0wmaair.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1331.photobucket.com/albums/w596/paulywalnuts2013/E848E379-C9DE-4E92-B8AD-110BAB31C2E7_zpsf0wmaair.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo E848E379-C9DE-4E92-B8AD-110BAB31C2E7_zpsf0wmaair.jpg"/></a><a href="http://s1331.photobucket.com/user/paulywalnuts2013/media/162F29D0-0201-4DE3-A8BF-887E3D9FCC35_zpsfhnfpsxm.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1331.photobucket.com/albums/w596/paulywalnuts2013/162F29D0-0201-4DE3-A8BF-887E3D9FCC35_zpsfhnfpsxm.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo 162F29D0-0201-4DE3-A8BF-887E3D9FCC35_zpsfhnfpsxm.jpg"/></a>

Looking good! A 180 is ALOT of real estate to cover for a reef tank. Can't wait to see what it looks like filled in. Good work.
 
Thanks all, for the kind words. I can't wait for these sticks to grow either.

Well thankfully you switched the lights, so colonies are on the horizon. Obsess on your alk being stable as well as salinity and PO4. Just keep it stable no matter where you like to keep any of those three params. Ps, tons of ridiculous flow helps, and I know your like me so you got this bro.

I got ya bro. Been anal about parameters this time around. I have been testing like a lot. Also juiced up the flow and added another mp40. Now the 3 mp40s and a mp60. I have been using Kalk in my top off, and had good luck with it. Also 2 part of course.
As for the lights. You would laugh at my diy t5 led combo. Running 12 39w and 4 36" led strips with good results. And colors are on point.
