Looks awesome there Big D :thumb:you sure snagged some like pieces of rock, is it Marco?

brotherd 07-18-2013 02:15 AM

Yeah it's Marco. Taking forever to purple up but I only have about 40#lbs live in the system. It's only 4 months since start up and I'm probably pushing it with sps but we'll see.

My buddy Strauss hooked me up big time when he shut his tank down so the best pieces you see are his re homed.

whoa! you don't mess around! Looking good man! What brand are those lights? I've never seen those before.

brotherd 07-18-2013 03:33 AM

The lights are the weak part. I bought them a couple years ago before I new what I would need. I feel I've made a mistake. They are bright as the sun. That's the problem. Not dimmable or adjustable except for height. I can choose bright or blue...there is a photo setting that looks good visually but is too dim to grow sps. The pics I've put up are not true to what I see due to crappy phone pics. I need to find a couple grand for the mitras units I'm drooling over. I'm also looking at pacific sun. The lights I have are Cherry Aqua Ocean from Korea.

Awesome set up! You've been busy!

Thanks. It's a bit trying to be patient. I'm really pleased that the swampy green wavy mass of algae and cyano is being replaced by purple coraline albeit ever so slowly and you can't even see it in the pics. On the plus side the skimmer pulls out monster garbage. I have to clean the cup every 4 or 5 days and the smell is a throat closing stench!
