Lol, just got a message if this is all a Hoax and the pictures may be photoshopped.

Looks Amazing! Love the Space Invader Pectinia (or atleast it looks like one)! Beautiful coloration!

Yes, it's a Space invader. Beautiful eye catching Coral if the strong Fluorescence is achieved.
As soon I find my Canon Camera and Photography equipment in the boxes, I will make some good shots ;-)

Most Corals look Ok, but can be much better.
Some just look not that good yet.
The Cell cam oversaturates the colors always a bit under the LED lights.

Suicide snail !!!
Thats one bad thing on the 300DD....... The braces are touching the water quite fast.
I guess I need to change either the overflow to allow more flow or just cut the entire overflow out and install retrofit boxes.....
Saw some good ones at BRS the other day.

I will have Herbies behind the overflows soon.

I'd try cutting the corner overflows to allow some more flow thru before completely eliminating them. It might be enough to lower the level.

I sure do recognize a lot of corals.
When I'm home sick for a full blown SPS tank I just buy a six-pack and come over to crash the Heimat Fest :rolleyes:

was trying to send you a PM but seems like you don't allow that on here. thanks for sharing your build and all the photos and video. I'm confident this will turn out awesome.

I wanted to see if you would be interested in a really nice solution for an internal overflow (https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/fs-brand-new-custom-internal-overflow-for-large-display.343873). seeing how you've done things very cleanly and looking for a solution for an overflow. i would definitely encourage getting rid of the the real-estate-hogging overflows in the corners which is easily done and go for something like the internal I am selling and an external box.

have you given thought to running a bean animal set up or external overflow?
