54 x 3 watt led build

[Mr.BAdams]

I sure will. I'm estastic, the shimmer the leds put off is amazing. You would never know it wasn't a metal halide setup by the looks of it had I not told you otherwise. I don't have as much of a blue tint as I prefer but, what can I do... I have four ATI blue plus bulbs running along side the leds. Oh well, its about the corals I suppose. :xd:

You can add in some high power blue LEDs. They are awesome.

 

[zsteph]

A looks great. I'm told you can put screens over the top of the tank to lessen the light if you don't have a dimmer and you find you need to let you corals acclimate to the new light.

Looks like you have a tunze power head and if so how do you like it?

 

[Mr.BAdams]

No, its not a tunze. Its a OceanStream OS-101k wave maker kit although, I've always wanted a tunze to try out for myself. I have heard good things about tunze brand items.

Mr. Adams, I am amazed and inspired! This is a BRILLIANTbuild! Is there anyway that you could post a complete parts list and possible schematic?

Thank you! Getting a schematic wouldn't be hard at all, I'm sure I could do this. Let me go through parts and jot them down, along side how I did it as well.

Shot you a private message.

Man, your whole set-up is great. And I bet knowing how much DIY work you did, makes it even sweeter.

 

[Mr.BAdams]

It does, believe me! I think I'm going to tackle the refugium next, Its in need of some TLC.

 

[TenUhC]

My sump is my next project.

 

[Mr.BAdams]

So its been a few days since I added the extra light. The acclmation went well, other then an anemone moving around. I'll post a new video in a week or two

 

[Mr.BAdams]
