Show me your 55g sps tank

[kissman]

I would love to see some pics of 55g sps tanks with what lights you have and how your flow is set up. Thanks in advance

I know it's not a 55 but here's my 65 from a few weeks ago, ATI sunpower, 1mp40, 1mp10's

I use this combo from front to back:
Reefbright attached to front
B+
P+
B+
B+
C+
B+

The pic taken just had the P+ and B+ on with the reefbrights so its very blue (dusk/dawn)

Tank looks really good! I actually run this same combo on my 75, with ATI fixture as well. Just out of curiosity, what's your photoperiod?

Nice! I am running

1 ATI True Actinic
2 ATI AquaBlue Special
1 ATI Coral Plus
2 ATI Blue Plus
not in this order

Thanks guys! still a new tank but it's shaping up nicely. Here's a better FTS with all bulbs plus reefbrite. I run all my lights for 10 hours with an hour of dusk/dawn on each end for an additional 2. Seems to be working so far and my lps aren't burning up. BTW the naso is a neighbors, Just plan on keeping him for a month or two he really took care of my dictoya problem.

How high do you hang your fixture? I'm really looking into getting a Sunpower or Powermodule and mounting a blue reefbrite on to it. Just wondering if I can get away with a 4x54 PM or SP with reefbrite supplement if I hang it real low.

I hang the Sunpower roughly 10" off the surface. The reefbrite comes with some L brackets that actually look pretty sleek attached. Not sure what your options are for a powermodule as the front is curved. I love the sunpower for growth but the reefbrite deff makes for better viewing of my dusk/dawn, sps really pop! Cheers, feel free to shoot me a pm don't wanna take away from the thread.

Do you get any shimmer from the Reefbrite? Or do the t5s overpower it?
