Just a few pics of new items that arrived today. Pic 1 is of my phosban reactor. Pic 2 is of my new typhoon III ro/di filter (I really like this unit). I suggest to all that buy ro/di filters on the big

[hr]
site to make sure you test TDS. I recently tested mine and found it was 30 TDS with new filters. I also got my 6 24w ho t5's today. Now all I need is for my LFS to receive my new stand, so that I can make a canopy out of it and install all my new lights. AGA is not very fast on shipping stuff these days. Thanks for looking.

Nice tank I loved it. I have question whre did you buy your Hydor Koralia pump and how much did it cost. Also I have a Phosban Reactor 150 just likes your and I want to do how did you hook that up and how much did you put that brown power stuff because I been wanted to hook it up but I'm afraid if I put too much of the brown stuff I could kill my fish which is I don't want to do that. I have 75 gallon tank trying to convert to easy and simple reef tank with overflowbox with 30 gallon of sump.
Again nice tank

Sorry can't give links to other sites. Just google them. They were $50 apiece. I hooked my phosban reactor up to a power head in sump. I only put about halve the amount of phosban for my tank (70g). I have been told to start with less amount and work your way up.

Just enough flow so that the top 1/2 inch of phosban tumbles.

Well I had to go to the LFS today to browse, of course I found something I was hoping to find when my new lights were installed. RBTA (pic 1). Sorry it is the best pic I could get for now. While he was acclimating I put together a temporary housing for my new lights. I am still waiting on my canopy. (pic 2). I am thrilled with the new lights. (pic 3-4). I put 3 layers of window screen down to acclimate to new light. (it blocks alot of light). How often should I pull a layer of screen?

Got my new stand in today and started cutting on it right away. Here are some new pics of canopy and new moon lights. I also drilled three large holes over each fixture to allow heat to escape. I also put some spacers under each fixture so there is a gap.
