That is the same fixture I just received. Great fixture. However it does not (60") give full light coverage to the whole tank being ~3" above water surface. I'm hoping this weekend to get it hung from the ceiling instead of the canopy and raise it more to get full tank coverage. Great fixture though.
Sonny, your tank looks awesome. Couple of questions uf you do not mind:
1) What bulb combination are you using?
2) How long did it take for your corals take to adapt?
3) How many hours do you run them and do you have your bulbs split in time?
4) Last but not least, did you have to feed more or less?
Sorry for all the questions but I observed that many people had problems with their corals bleaching...
Keep up the good work and thanks in advance!

4. I dont feed my tank much so there was no difference in feeding. I feed Amino Acids every few days in small doses. Other than that, my corals get no other food. My fish eat well so their waste helps feed the corals. I dose:
-Brightwell Microbacter7 bacteria
-Vodka
-Lugols Solution
-Brightwell Coral Amino
