Sweet looking tank man!

Very nice, similar to my setup (in progress). Was wondering about the spread of the Hydra52, looks like coverage is a bit dim on the outside edges but great straight through the centre. Have you thought about angling it 45 degrees and moving a bit away from the overflow for better coverage?

The hydra covers the tank nicely. It does have a bit of a dimmer area on the right hand side, you're right. I was going to raise the light slightly. I also planned on putting zoas and lower light corals there.

What is the height at now? (above the water line)

duncangweller 09-01-2014 08:07 PM

5" I'd say.

I've heard 8-10" is the sweet spot for coverage on these tanks, at least with most commercial LEDs

Yeah I actually read that yesterday on another build thread. I'll move it up a bit and see what happens

Nicely done there Dunc, looks great.
Slightly off topic, what are your WPs set at now, can you text me a pic of your controller please?
