Nice light bracket. Did you build it yourself?

I have made some major process with the tank now just have to figure out how to upload the pics here they keep telling me the files are to large but we shall see.

sounds awesome. just upload to photobucket or similar and post the IMG tags here instead. much easier than trying to use the gallery from this site and doesn't take up server storage.

+1, much easier. Look forward to some pictures.

Sorry for the crappy shots this was with an iphone late last night this isn't the final aquascape just moved the rock from the the cure phase im about to arrange the rock now and do some more work in the sump

[monkiboy]

when you get a chance, a PAR read out with the five units over the 7' would be great. curious if i can get away with five or need six and in whatever depths you are able to take would be great. have you signed up for the PAR meter yet?

[the_elite_edge]

My neighbor has a par meter so im gonna give him a call in a few to see when he can come by waiting for the water to clear up a bit

Lookin good so far!

ok so here are a few updates my tank has been running leak free for about a week or so now had a few chromis and gobies in qt decided to let them cycle the tank the rest of the way im in the process of ordering a uv sterilizer just need to know what size for about 300 total gallons (still planning to put a refugium online) but the initial tank readings are below more pics to come just cant find my camera

 

PH 8.1 (will be sure today new probe came in the mail)

Nitrate 20ppm

Ammonia .25ppm

Nitrite 0ppm

 

So all in all looking good will be hooking the ozone up within the next couple of days and maybe the calcium reactor if I can get around to it also looking to see how i want to do the ato with the jbj but making good progress thats for sure.

who did you buy them from?

[the_elite_edge]

I bought them during the last group buy cause I remember using your led layout design so not sure who was the head I would have to check to see

i dont have you listed as a participant in my group buys on here. did you mean a group buy somewhere else? i'll be glad to help you regardless. if purchased through reefbreeders then you just need to send logan an email and he'll send you whatever replacement part you need in a jiffy. hopefully it's just some quick troubleshooting, though.

I was in afghanistan when I ordered them and Ryan (Swfan-Cmas) ordered mine for me while I was gone and I just sent the paypal payment but beyond that I have no idea I will attempt to troubleshoot in the morning didnt know where to start at just yet

i dont know the details of the GB he put together so i would get in contact with him via PM on here or CMAS. i think he worked with evergrow directly so he or you would just email sunny and let her know and she'll troubleshoot with you and if not just a simple fix then she'll send out the replacement parts you need. but i dont want to make assumptions on his behalf so please speak to him so you're taken care of.

[the_elite_edge]

Thats whats I will do thanks for the input I was surprised that they just went out like they did for no reason I will have to see what I can do I was gonna open it up but without a youtube video or instruction manual I have no idea wth I would be looking at lol

[monkiboy]

it's really cleanly designed and easy to work with. if you haven't seen check out tony's post showing the unit open: http://wamas.org/forums/topic/53375-the-looking-glass/page__st__125#entry471642

[Der ABT]

that might have been my group buy.......but as said above contact sunny

you could probably get her to ship the parts wtih this upcoming group buy that ends today and save any shipping costs....i would guess driver but this only happened on 1 fixture right, not all of them....all of them i would start trouble shooting what its plugged into..
