Default Nicks 120 Gal work in progress

I figured that with all the fun stuff i have been getting and doing lately i would start a bit of a build/upgrade thread(somewhere i can post my rantings, nonsense, and a place to show off my new goodies).

I will start here:


Above is my tank not to long after switching my Coralife MH out for a could D120 LEDs. Definitely a good choice(especially since i was never fond of changing bulbs on any type of schedule and always would let them go to long).

And a few of my little friends:

I guess the next thing would be that i dropped the mag 12 and went with a dc5000.



Quite happy with the pump. it has been up and running a while and has been reliable, quiet, and it is quite nice to have the feed mode and speed options.

More recently i decided that i wanted to make a light bar to hang my lights. I ended up using some aluminum angle and flat bar. I ended up using cotter pins to attach lights to light bar so i can pop them out if i ever need to quite easily.
