Lol.... I just want to share, somehow that pool thing last week went right over my newbie head... @jsker I became sooooooooo confused. I was wondering, are they all retired, and live in the same area? Does jsker only get one guest (swimming) pool pass per day? ;Hilarious
Motivation pass;)

How sd the lights look in real life? Obviously pictures don't due true justice. Do you think they will still be adequate?

Yes I believe the lights will be just fine! [emoji4]

I actually turned them down a bit. I went looking on the interwebs and looked for a soft/LPS layout for the LED’s and programmed mine to the same levels. It will be a minute before corals go in.

Michael, keeping up with this journal is impossible, LOL! Every time I see a pic, I am just blown away at the scape, it is so unique and artistic! You have some crazy patience man! Great job again!

Thanks bro! It was definitely tapping into my artistic side that has laid dormant for way to long. I had no choice but to be patient, my vision I knew was going to take time. Thanks again for the compliment!

Looks good man. Are you going to do the whole soda Line thing to raise ph on this tank?

Yes I plan on doing this if needed. At the moment it’s still pretty erratic, i find that to be normal on start up.

Here is the current PH profile on the new tank...



This one below if of a different tank that’s been running for awhile.

As you can see.... after some time things have a tendency to smooth out into a more predictable pattern.
