Livestock plans yet?

Mixed reef with sps up top.. going to stock a large number of small fish... like all 1-3" maybe one slightly larger wrasse... but I envision a ton of movement and motion..

Nice! Challenge to scape. Build a rock tower!

Yep, that's the plan... gonna start on it tomorrow...

Nice! That really looks great.

Thanks.. the height is a challenge but I have one tall structure and I'm a huge gorgonian fan so they will add height..

That's a sweet setup. What will you do for lighting?

No clue... any suggestions???

Some type of hybrid lighting.

 

1. Reefbrite makes a led/halide combo

2. NanoBox has a t5/led combo

3. Giesemann are always top notch

4. ATI t5 fixture with some reefbrite LED bars

Love the aquascape!

Thanks... turned out pretty good I think... probably 50ish pounds of rock and I am going to add a couple pieces to the sump...

Prepare yourself for some wet armpits! Have the same issue on my dropoff.

 

I use an ATI T5/LED hybrid on mine, similar footprint. I love it.

Yep, I love the depth tho.. just the look of it draws me in...

 

If I had the coin that hybrid would likely be my choice... I just don't... awesome light...

Got the sump arranged.. it's a tight fit without much room to work, but it's all in haha...

Also added a bottle of Dr Tims and 90 drops of ammonia to get the cycle going...
