So, as mentioned in my introductory post I used to run a natural sunlight frag tank and reef when I was based in South Africa. A few of you have expressed interest in seeing what I had built, so here goes:
Instead of re-writing , I've provided some links below which detail the small frag tank and reef tank which I ran outdoors, utilising natural sunlight. Neither of these systems are still running, as they were broken down due to my relocation to the Czech Republic. I had mixed success using natural sunlight, but the learning obtained was invaluable.

Lastly, I've included a link to my old Nano build thread (also on another forum), for those that are interested. This tank is not running anymore and I will open a new thread shortly for my Reefer 200 XL build which has started.
