These have been in my tank only a Week! They are thriving under the Acro Optics fixture

And this guy seems very Happy!

SPY SCREEN SHOTS!!!!!

First I do not work for Acro Optics.......but being a electronics tech for the past 33 years you get too know quite a few people. And many of the people involved with the manufacturing of this product are friends of mine.

Steve is a full service type of person....Steve came to my house, measured my tank, built the bracket for the fixture and delivered it right to my house!

I am honored that Steve allowed me to test some of the firmware versions and the latest GUI. This should be released next week. So with his blessing I was able to take a few shots to put up here.

This is a shot of the Duty Cycle and Par output graph. As you build your program you can see the par output and the time in a simple on screen graph.

This is the full dashboard where you have an overview of the current program that is running.

This is the programing screen

This is a program I created with the Lunar/Solar schedule from the Light house Reef at Isla Mujeres MX. Notice it is fully adjustable day and night and levels.

This is the custome programing screen where you are able to set ramp up and down for each color, start time, duration and how many days. This happens to be a coral acclimation program that ramps up over a 30 day period.

This is the program manager screen. Once you build and save your program....it is just drag and drop to add the program to your fixture. Yes all over wi-fi!

Great work and nice organization under the tank too, the stand is sweet! Following along! Looks like it's off to a great start!

Thank you! It has been a really fun tank build! Lots of good help and many good friends in this hobby helped make this happen. It is going to be sweet when the colonies start to spread out!

Ya looks like you had a lot of cleaning to do at first. It's a miracle what vinegar can do to grime, lol. I love the size of the 120's! Looks like you left plenty of room for all of your stuff to grow too. How do you like the gyre?

So far so good I have tried many settings and still may change it a bit but right now I have a pretty good swaying motion on the corals across the whole tank. Yes the tank was a mess when I got it! But there is nothing like making something your very own. Plus you then know every square inch of your set up! Thank you for following along!
