What kind of tank is that? Are the footprint of the tank is similar to Nanocube 12g? You need heatsink, driver(s) (meanwell D or buck puck), power supply if you use buckpuck), wiring, soldering skills, thermal paste or the thermal stickers that nanotuners sells. I don't think you need optic on LEd if the size of your tank similar to NC12. Also you need 1/2 PC fans on the hood sucking air out from heatsink. As for dimming, you can either built one of those DIY dimmer that works with Meanwell D or use buckpuck which has POT on it. If you have Reefkeeper, you can use ALC module and meanwell D drivers to do the dimming for you. Buckpuck can only drive a maximum of 6 LED per driver while Meanwell can drive about 12 max. It's all depends on personal preference on driver selection Acclimation of corals to LED is important. Dimming is a must (or you can adjust the height or use some screen to control the light penetration) There are a lot guides in N-R to give you an idea how to etc.

Mine stealth heater broke too..luckily I found it out while is off. It has a cracked on the middle of the plastic joint. I am not sure how...I have it for like 3 + years

wait..you are not using a heatsink? where is the star will be mounting too?

yes ..dipping ..lol sorry.

I have decided to buy a Reefkeeper Lite level 1...hopefully to add a ALC down the road. I think I can use the myreef app and get access on my controller via PC remote desktop or VPN or logmein

I am planning to go by Mr Coral this Monday evening I am wondering if you drip his corals? I read somewhere there is bug on his frags from N-R forum. Regardless, what is the proper dripping procedure? I do not have a proper QT setup. I have an extra tank setup but crappy PC lighting only

nice cannon...how the cannon ventilate?

RKL + ALC capable of dimming

Check your heater first...they tend to break easily!!!...my stealth broke on me!

Disconnect everything and connect each piece of equipment one at a time and use a meter (can be purchase from any hardware store or Harbor Freight cheaply) to measure for any stray current

on your LED setup, are you planning for dimming or adjustable height to control the intensity? Also, when you decided to purchase driver, let me know...let go in together for saving shipping cost

Sorry I completely forgotten about this... It basically using pressure feed. The air pump is connect with the float switch. When the water level is low, it switch on the pump and it will pump air into the 1g jug. The air intake end is only 3" from the cap. The other end is laying all the way at the bottom of the jug. Gallon jug with battery operate pump behind Float switch with the other end of tube CLose up

One of my clown has the similar white stuff on the mouth from mouth to mouth fighting with another clown when they are fighting for dominant. Should I dip him on formalin?

http://www.roxtec.com/products/ You can probably request a sample. This product use in CO/Cabinet/building for cable and blocking out outside element and even fire retardant

Here is a solution attaching your locline with heatsink... Aluminum flange base for LocLine http://theledguy.chainreactionweb.com/product_info.php?products_id=1010

You can get a floatswitch with either battery operate pump or the ATO pump. I built mine for under $10.

thanks man!

please now...do a search in CL for victorian for Annapolis section.

Heatsink is polished to give a better heat transfer and also look cool! :)I have a lot mothers polish leftover Coral Hind: thanks!

I have added 1) Pink ring zoa 2) Garf Bonsai 3) a Robokiki chalice Some updates Zoas are growing..so are the sps (over a span of 1 month) Before After Before After

You can buy one pretty cheap.. ICAP 4" variable speed with thermal sensor. I am have one laying around

very very nice!!!! ....

Why you are risking it? Here something for reading from Cree about heat management http://www.cree.com/products/pdf/XLampThermalManagement.pdf You could get away with smaller heatsink or those L channel or even 2" aluminum tubing but you must rely fans to dissipate the heat.

Tell me about it. I was lucky I took my stealth heater out for cleaning and I have it soaked in the vinegar water on a bucket. I had the heater soaked for a few days and I took it out and clean it. I discovered there is a cracked on the black plastic stealth heater that I can see the stuffs inside!

When you guys are screwing the LEDs on the heatsink, I would highly recommend you to polish the heatsink with Mothers! It only takes like 15mins-30min of work and it's easy. You can use a cloth and a drill to do the work. Any question on LED built, you can PM me. I will try to answer whatever I know. I have mine running since Feb/March 2010.
