Popular Post Jimbo662 Posted January 25, 2018 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2018 LET THERE BE LIGHT! Very impressed so far. It looks bluer in the picture than it is in person. I put two blue +, one coral + and one actinic in it. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sascha D. Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 That looks really bright in the pictures. Have you tested the PAR yet? I need to work on making my tank a little brighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to work on making my tank a little brighter. Yeah it is...hopefully getting it tested in the next day or two. Most of the light is from the T5s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarmerTy Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I have to say, was blown away with this setup in person. I joke but not joking at the same time, Jimbo could literally just setup tanks all day long and make masterpieces everytime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would be foolish to even try to compete with Jimbo with pure sexy-aquarium set up skills . @jolt may be the only here that can rival Jimbo's skills! I know my tank is only sexy in the coral coloration and growth, the rest of the tank looks like a rats nest of wires and mismatching equipment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jolt Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I really like the new light. Does it have cables coming out both sides for the t5s? I've been curious about that ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo662 Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 I think I'm almost done...just waiting on the lid that should be here mid week next week. Last couple of things to do is connect the UV and algae reactor. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo662 Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 I've gotten about 2/3 of the corals moved over. So far everything is looking nice and fat an happy. One thing that doesn't look right is everything you see with red in it is actually orange in person. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo662 Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Finally connected the UV and algae reactor (minus light) to the manifold. I'd got everything set for the reactor and plugged it in and no light!!!!!!!! Been waiting for Marine Depot chat to respond for almost 2 hrs now!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
