240 Leemar sps build

I just read your entire thread and your pictures are amazing! What lens do you use for your macro shots?
 
This is a good idea. When I put water in my 220 bow front and start to cycle it I will keep a photo log too
 
Hi! I use the following combination from the ATI website:
8-Bulb combination
  • 5 ATI Blue Plus
  • 2 ATI Coral Plus
  • 1 ATI Purple Plus

I dose 2 part with my Apex and DOS. I'm dosing about 350ml of each daily over a 24 hour period. Nothing else besides a skimmer. The Super Reef Octopus 5000 is a beast!!! Pulls out tons of gunk. I think I will be order the AVAST 5gal locker for the skimmate soon.

I wouldn't mind checking out your tank. I will send you a pm! :)
Post 44, you mentioned “Actinics from 11-8“. Above you listed your bulk combination, but where do Actinics come in?
 
At one point I had an actinic bulb in there, but it's been a while. Currently I am running 4 ATI Blue plus, and 4 ATI Coral Plus.

Decided to switch to calcium reactor. Currently setting up and tuning CR220 DC with SMC 618 2nd chamber.

So this year I have been slowly removing some pieces and replacing them with newer frags I like. Really hard to get rid of colonies after you grow them from frags :(

Some new pieces I have been growing this year:
