these are from old wet sides we accumulate. good recycling!

Trouble is they move about so will have to think of something more inventive.

One thing I would like to mention is the ATO and how it is direct feed from a solenoid.

BE VERY CAREFUL here, if you install them the wrong way round they will not work for long, jam open and flood your system, mine came with a red mark on the feed side, if your does not, please ask the supplier.

I will be fitting a secondary higher level mechanical ball **** (Oh please!! the word C-ock is not aloud! ref **** Ball Co-ck there ive said it!) supplied by Bubble Magus as a get out of jail card also.

With your dosing system Michael, can the Profilux doser actually pull fluids up that distance? I know the holding containers should never be above the doser but that seem like a long ways to draw. I only ask for reference to when I get around to setting mine up.

I'm running an MP-40 on the back of my Concepts tank with no issue. I also have an acrylic background and the tank is 3/8" glass. I'm not using the spacer, only the sticky rubber pad. How are you trying to run it?

Anyways, looks awesome. I like the Profilux touch mounted on the wall. I'm still amazed a single Mitras covers a tank that size.

My total thickness is 3/4"

The quality of the tank continues to amaze me the attention to detail, the clear silicon and the one piece euro is mind blowing, Dave has the edge here on tank building!

The GHL Mitras LED coral test!

Photo uploaded is of a very sorry for itself looking chunk of what used to be green with purple edges plating Montipora. This is what is left from my huge colony. As you can see its not very colourful, yes it has some purple showing through just about, and yes the water is slightly cloudy thanks to Prodibio kicking up a nice bio bloom while the tank matures. But I think we all can agree my camera work does not get good enough for photoshop.

So lets wait a few weeks and see what colour this goes under GHL Mitras LED Place your bets please
