NanoGurl's 75g Reef Thread

Not open for further replies.
i have that coralife fixture on my 37g... man does the fan suck(not like it should), but the light with phoenix isn't that bad. the lamp that comes with it is 8k at best.. even though listed as 14k (esu bs as usual), but to my real question... are you gonna close the hood? or wait til 250 upgrade?

btw you inspired me to look into new stand for my new build... i have the crappy pine aga stand, but think im gonna get modern aga now bc of this thread it is so open and nice looking relatively.
 
tank is looking great.
i think the two 6045s would be good for your tank but you could save a few buck and get the 6025s and just snip the shroud a lil bit to get the same or more flow as the 6045.

i have a tank similar sized with two modded nano 6025 and one 6045 and its a battle with the sandstorms.

Nanogurl those ricordias are awesome. Did you get all of them locally?

Thanks :) Yes, I did. I have a couple really nice ones I'll take some photos for you.

Yea, there is no way the standard bulb is a 14k. It's a good bulb I think bc my stuff grew great under it, but the color wasn't really great.

I can't close the hood yet. The fixtures are too tall. I have to mount them behind the tank and drop them down another inch, or buy new fixtures. I want to buy the ice cap with Reef Optix kit, but it's $569 for two with the phoenix bulb from reefgeek. Not really sure since I already have these fixtures if it's that much better.

Yea, I like the stand a lot. Much better then the Pine ones I've had on all the other tanks.

Hmm... I wonder if the two 6045's would be bad for sand storms too?
 
No Fair!

On 4/8/07, this tank was on the floor.
Now 4/26/07, tank is filled with all kinds of stuff.

I bet if Nanogurl wasn't a gurl, you'd guys be bashing, for setting up so quickly!

I just think people are being nice to you bc u r a girl. I have seen other new tanks bashing from plenty here on RC, you seem to be an exception. To experiment put a bunch of tangs in there, I bet even the tang police will cut you a break! LOL

Girls get everything their way.

No fair!

no modded 6025s put out quite a bit more than 6045s
if i were you though i would get the 6025 the 6045 is the exact same pump just a lil wider opening giving it more flow.

And it took you 16 pages to find that out? JK :p

She's moving stuff from other established tanks to this (first post of the thread ;) ). It's not like setting up a NEW tank.

And the sooner you accept that girls 99.99% get stuff their wa, the happier you'll be :D .
