Maybe look into: - Vortech MP40W - More LR - Deltec Fluidizer with NP BioPellets Show us some pic's once you get things functional. Have fun!!! |
Forget the Ca reactor and kalk stirrer, go for a Profilux doser; go ATI or Sfiligoi for your T5HO lighting, and you'll be pimpin in no time.
Oh yeah, and go top down, that's right, go trimless. Oh yeah. |
Go

just bought my tek 6x39 watt.
what bulbs would you go with. this is going to be an sps tank and i want colors to pop. thanks for the time. |
Personally, I'd probably go for the following for 6 bulbs..
2x ATI Aquablue Specials 2x ATI Blue+ 1x KZ Fiji Purple For the last bulb it's really preference but you could do another Blue+ or even do a 6500k bulb. |
well got the tank today and i am very happy.
tec light showed up today. wife is not happy (lmao). i,ll post pic as soon as i can. for buld this is what i am going with. 2x giesemann aquablue+ 1x geisemann actinic 1x kz coral light 1x kz coral light ll 1x kz figi purple. i am still trying to find a calcium reactor. i have a kalk reactor. just waiting for new tunze top off as sensor was a dud on the one i bought. this build is going to be sweet so stuy tuned. |

tank is done! what a job.
well i could not get the zeovit reactor in my stand.( not enough room) so i switched to n/p reducing biopellets in a phosban reactor. i have to go get a 2nd phosban reactor for carbon today. i am going to dose with some zeovit goodies. 1-coral vitalizer 2-pohl,s xtra 3-amino acid concentrate lps 4-sponge power. i,ll start doseing in 2 weeks, as it takes 4-6 weeks to see results from the n/p. i am happy with the way things turned out, just need some sweet frags off dez! i,ll post some more pics tonight with carbon reactor running. |
