Hello

Long time listener, first time caller here. I have a 65g tank with mostly sticks. Thought I would post a bad FTS for and introduction.

Thanks,

I plan to upgrade in the next year or so. I am going to give everything a chance to grow and keep cramming pieces in there. In the meantime, this is all the aquarium the wife allows.

Well that is just beautiful. I have a feeling you're going to have to start making some hard choices on what goes and stays, or just up grade.

I already have space issues. The plan is to sell our current house in a years time. When that happens I plan to upgrade to something in the 180ish range. By that time everything should be very grown out and ready for a new home. In the meantime, I am going to cram everyone in!

The lighting on this tank may be a bit overboard. I have 2 250watt Phoenix bulbs in Lumen Max 3 reflectors, with a dual t-5 36" fixture with geismann and ATI bulbs. And I also have a 36" Lumenmax pro LED strip with actinics. The picture you highlighted has the T5's and LED light on only. That combo is very blue but I love how pics come out with just those lights on.

Older pic with different LEDS. I have the Truelumen actinic fixture and love it.
