I fixed the link the show the pics. :)

interesting on the light selection. how long have you been running that combo? this might be the way to go if I set up an all acan tank.
 
thats crazy reefbrites only do you have any par measures? This puppy looks bright as can be. how do you control them are they all on their own dedicate timers or a controller cuz they are all single strips correct? I dig the look i bet you tank glows when the whites are off. How do you have them mounted on in the canopy?
 
That is pretty crazy, i think another user on here who got banned used only reefbtrites as well. What is the lighting scedual do you bring on two at a time till all six are on?
 
bring on 2 at a time... controlled by my reef angel controller

2 blues 1pm to 9pm
2white 2pm to 9pm
2blues 2pm to 10pm.......

no par readings but i get growth top to bottom on the tank. the lights are attached using the factory brackets right to my canopy, i tried a few different ways but this is still my favorite and each bracket can angle this fixture in any directions
 
i will be doing some photos of my corals but they will be saturated with blue, i hate to photoshop to whiten my photos.... i need to start doing a few growth studies for different sps corals under my reefbrites
 
You have a really nice setup. I like the look the reefbrites give your tank, also interested in seeing coral growth. How do like the Reef Angel? I was considering getting one, I would appreciate your feedback on the systems setup ans ease of use. Great setup.
 
I like that frag tank, exactly what I'm running for my display right now.

How do you like the 120? I know skinz loves them :)
 
i would love a 180 but the 120 and 60 gallon flat works out.... the 120 is perfect size for everyone.....wink wink it even comes with wife approval from mine....
 
I wish I picked up the 180 my buddy sold for like 800 now. Ugh..now I'm stuck watching online for a bigger tank, haha.
