Phox's Aqueon 75G Reef Tank

[Reyphox]

Picked up this PAR38 grow bulb. Spectrum looks about right for algae growth. 75W equivalent so not the strongest but it will be paired with a CAT CT3530 LED work light with an output equivalent of 150W.


Using and old light fixture....


Came up with this genius!


Placed the CAT work light in front of the sump to get light at different angles and threw in come chaetomorpha.

Looks good. Bleaching the rocks was a wise move. Stand looks solid.

I used one of those hanging shop lights a few years ago, keep an eye on corrosion, especially in the non aluminium parts.

Good luck

Thx!


It's one of those reptile lights. I just took the metal reflector off and left the ceramic socket. I hope it lasts for a year or so. Don't know how well this setup is going to work yet so it might get pulled sooner for something better built for growing algae.
