That's a nice tank. Good job! What are the dimensions of that? Also, that's a sweet manifold up top there.

tank is 48 X 30 wide by 24 tall...manifold is not done yet as it is being converted to all locline in the tank later on today.

I will update pics as I take them

Tank sits 48 inches into the room, so there are three viewing panels used.

more pics to come

Great looking setup, although now I have a sore neck from trying to view them right side up. :p Come on man, rotating isn't that hard.. :lol:

ignorance is not bliss....laziness is...thanks Tony

Nate,
That tank is awesome and I think the colour of the Tek light is awesome. I am still trying to accumulate equipment for my forray back into the hobby... your pictures have convinced me that t5ho is the way to go.

Thanks
 

Thanks Fish,

Maybe I will try to do a couple more comparison pics today for ya, now that I have been messing around with the bulbs a ton (I bought 17) I think I now have it "tuned" to thecolour I like.

Nate

Thanks
 

woops double post

What's the light penetration like? In some pictures there looks like an awful lot of intensity dropoff at the bottom. It could be that the pictures are a bit underexposed though which tends to exaggerate the effect a little.
