okay so its mothers day and whats better then a custom fully programmable led fixture for our tank. 1500- later and 1 hour and a half car ride .... well worth it. i was going to do this all myself but i could not pass this deal up. 3 pendants 40 leds 20 royal blue and 20 cool whites 12...

can't see pics here on his name anymore. I could earlier in the day. Soooo frustrating!!!

i have tried looking and i haven't found a good enough id for this ....

nice ... 2quills i didn't even think about running them in parallel. i should have my leds in the next 2 weeks so i might have to see if i am going to run them in parallel or not...

^+1 nikesb hit it right on the head. in a nano it is very easy to get temp and salinity swings. ato is important to keep it stable between water changes. jrse7en... i would get salifert test kits for caclium and alkalinity. i would get a hanna meter (the cheaper one) for you phosphate. api...

sps success = consistency. light, random flow, alkalinity and calcium levels are key. so start small... dose 2 part ca and alk then when you see that its getting too much for you to do.. then get a reactor. as far as sps placement start lower but with a good amount of flow... not directly in a...

pics of stuff.....lol pair of harliquin shrimp my jaw fish.. my wet dry to sump conversion had 2 full dividers..... the were none had to make a bubble trap....

okay... you have a mixed reef right? 48 led for 2' is little much... unless you do heavy sps. from what i have read and understand.... 36 3w leds are equivalent to a 250w halide. so figure 48 3w led is maybe 325-350w. if i were you... i would do 36 3w led per 2 feet, dimmable so you don't...

honestly.. i would go with http://rapidled.com they have dimmable drivers, come with optics, and you can also purchase heatsinks pre drilled and tapped for easy installation. i have seen several of these diy cree 3w leds and gotta say i like what i see. if you want you can email mike from...

lol. just a little.

yikes.... lol.

i see what your saying for only 2 degrees but.... $1000 = $??? in cooked coral its an investment. i noticed everyone with bigger tanks end up with them too.

i had tried a used coralife 1/2 chiller and it wasn't too loud. it just didn't have any refrigerant in it so it served no purpose. is there a way you can get it into a closet or something? i would also check on others reviews about the chiller your looking to purchase just to see if it is a...

we added some new corals just want to show them off. (birthday presents from my wife) ORA red planet ORA borealis ORA miami orchid garf bonsai ??? unsure of most of the names. i had to make custom frag rack , eshopps racks holes are not big...

83 degrees is a high temp spike. i know chillers are very expensive but they are a good investment. i have recently gotten into sps and they are super sensitive to heat so this weekend i am buying one from the same person i bought our 180g from. the Mrs. may disagree with me lol... what else...

Hello there and welcome. To drop your salinity do a water change...maybe about 10%. Without salt. I noticed when I do my water changes.... 10% weekly, for every 5gallon bucket I fill with RO water I add 2cups salt. I then use a pump to mix it and bring up to temp for about 24 hours. Sooo to...
