Im looking to add 2 24" VHO actinic to help with the color.
And it looks like a chiller is finally in my wish list. With both lights running my tank hits 86degs, 4 deg higher then i normally run it. I have 2 4" server fans laying around so soon i hope to get those installed.... until then im only running 1 of the lights.

Added 4 cpu fans to help with the temp problems 2 6 inch fans and 2 4 inch fans. I picked up 2 central air floor vents and cut slots in the canopy to fit them in and put 2 of the 4 inch fans in one of them pulling air in and blowing it directly over the MH bulb. The 2 6 inch fans are mounted in the top of the canopy sucking the hot air out. Now my temp is a stable 82 degs.

i pulled one of the 175s out, was just to much. I had 2 27watt PCs and ballast laying around that i pulled out of my 12 gallon aquapod so i put them up in the 175s reflector "2x27 watt actinics".
Not sure what im going to do with the other 175 and ballast but i really want to setup my 54 gallon corner tank again so maybe ill use it for that tank.
Or maybe ill setup a frag tank one day. Im really interested in growing out some rare zoas,pallys and duncans.

Hey, nice tank what did you do with the biocube?
i still have it... has about 5 inches of sand in it and 1 LR.. I guess its kinda of a QT tank but i haven't gotten any new fish in such a long time its just doing nothing. Same with my 12 gal aquapod. Its full or LR and doing nothing but running.

sometimes it seems that putting her in front of the tank is the only thing that will calm her down.
