Great looking tank. This is very impressive!

Thank you!

So I just looked and percentages are

White 25
Blue 40
Royal 40
D Blue 40
Red 30
Green 30

I will be bumping them up here in the next day or so probably another 5%. It seems as though some of my zoas are stretching and one of my maxi mini nems.

Great looking tank! You can't beat the quality that comes from Chris at PicO. I wish I had gotten a shallow tank though :(

Thank you his tanks are top notch this is my second one of his I am about to start the first one I got from him in the nano in 90. Love the shallow look but it is proving to be a bit difficult not being able to have corals at different depths with the LEDs.

No thread on it. There isn't much to it, yet. I took some corals from my home tank to see if they would do better under my ReefBreeders Par38 bulb and they are doing awesome. I had a frag of Ora Purple Stylo that started some STN in my home tank. I fragged it and placed the 2 new small piece in my work tank and they are making a FAST recovery. Seems the leds are doing a better job with my SPS than my 4x54w ATI bulbs at home. I have some Birds of Paradise inmy home tank that I'd like to frag for the work tank but I need to wait till it gets a little bigger.

Thanks I want to get a few more pieces of sps, some zoas and a nice plate coral. I love your plate and hope I can find something as colorful.

Look like he is doing a little handstand for you and yes, they are some definitely part of the a group of most interesting fish to watch ... and they come in such nice and appealing colors too ...
