Nice Tank. Hey I have a question for you. My question is what type of lighting to you use or have? Second how much live rock and what kind of live rock do you have inside your tank. Also what type of additivies do you put into the tank. I know that cal., Ionide, stro. are the three additivies to have to. I'm still learning how to do reef tank and I'm having trouble keeping the cal. level. And I know that you can have a cal. reactor, but I don't want to have that yet because I see other people don't need the cal. reactor. Is there any trick that I need to know to keep the maintaince into a level. I also have 75 gallon tank and I'm wondering if the Current USA Orbit Metal Halide with 2X150W MH Lamp 2x54w Actinic 460nm 2x54w Actinic 420nm 9 blue leds/9 white leds 48.25" X 15.25" X 4.25" without legs. With legs the light is 7.25" tall. The legs expand to a maximum length of 48.5". The on/off switches, located on the ends of the light require another 1/4 inch of clearance. The power cords come out of the back of the light and require another one inch of clearance. 529W/4.6 amps 516 watt output from the metal halide and T5s. Would this be too much for the mix of soft coral and easy hard coral.
Let me know what you think about this light and other suggestion do you.
Thanx
Jay
