I picked up 120, sold it as it wasn't going to fit on our main floor. Then, we revamped our basement and another tank made sense again. I have a 46g SPS dominated tank on the main floor with sparse rockwork that will remain. The 46 was my second go in reefing...the first ended badly in a transition from a 10g to a 30g cube during 6 months and 3 changes in address. Now, in my reef 3.0 I'll get to move some corals to a bigger tank, get some additional fish, and enjoy reefing on multiple levels... in my home and philosophically. Thank you to my wife for endulging my reefing hobby, I'll try not to start planning a 180 for a couple more years. SO...the NEW TANK details: Marineland 90g reef ready with screen tops and factory stand (wamas pickup) Eshopps R-200 (wamas pickup) Avast ATO (wamas pickup) AC3 controller (wamas pickup) Reef Octopus Classic 150 (new, through wamas sponsor - Premium Aquatics) ATI Sunpower 6x54w (new, from PA again) Reef Brite 48" Tech blue (new, from PA again) 2 x BRS dosers Eheim Compact 2000 return pump ...and I'm currently figuring out my display flow. My return pump is meant to roughly match my skimmer draw.... we'll see how that goes. I'll have to get some pics up soon. I've got what I hope is most all my rock in some holding tubs...been keeping it alive and ready. I need to buy some sand and the right size hose (3/4") to connect my hard plumbing to my return pump. Then, I can finish my leak test, drain, and fill with saltwater. Getting so close now....

http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc418/jrg993/photo.jpg Please help! This happened to this Acro Frag *overnight* - it's covered in small holes. I'm going to dip it when I go home to see what falls off but if someone could ID it for me I would really appreciate it. My water params are really locked, all other corals fine - it looks like a nasty pest of some kind. You can really see the hole at the bottom of the frag but if you look close it's covered in them. I've never seen damage like this - especially this rapidly. -

Hello All I currently have an LED fixture that I built like 4 years ago and while it worked very well for my previous tank (10 gallon aquarium) I am not very happy with it over my 22 shallow aquarium. Some of the issues I am currently facing is not enough PAR for SPS corals, no equal spread across & lacking of spectrum that some corals need for growing. Also, my tank is 24"x24" and the layout of these leds is rectangular so 2 sides of the tank get more light than the other. All this said, I am going to be building a new LED fixture with the following LEDS: 08 CREE XT-E Neutral Whites LEDS 16 CREE XT-E Royal Blue LEDS 04 LEDgroupBuy OCW (Ocean Coral White) LEDS 08 LEDgroupBuy Hyper Violet 430nm LEDS I am hoping I can achieve 500 PAR at some area's at least and have an equal spread across all the tank.. I will be installing these leds into a 10"x10" heatsink from heatsinkusa and will group the leds into 4 identical clusters with the purpose of mixing the led colors as good as possible. Also, I will be building a jarduino along the way so that I can control the output % of each led channel separately by hour, this way you can create a sunrise & sunset effects. I might expand this controller leater to add some of the other pre-programmed features such as moonlight (with schedulle by area), temperature sensors, heater control, etc.. I already created a post on how to put together the LDD drivers to power these leds located here. Here is a picture of some of the parts that will be used to put together this project, notice that I am still waiting for some parts such as the Power supply and the TFT monitor for the jarduino. LED Cluster Cluster with 60 degree optics "Arduino" and shield from ebay Thanks for watching and any suggestions or ideas to help me on this project would be appreciated!
