Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

I'll let others way in. I dont have an anemone.

 

[Scurvy]

What do y'all think about the little nem? You think my tank will be ok up top?

Probably but as you know it’ll tell you quickly if it wants a new spot. If it takes a long stroll maybe move him to a basket at that point? The basket directly under the Steves might be too close to the light tho. Something to consider.

I did think about that. I'm not really sure about gen4 pro. I'm guessing from what I have seen and read they use quite a bit of blues and violets. I'm hoping the dark trip will help the transition some.

I don’t have any knowledge with anemone. Mine have been moving around on the rock. They spend most of there time by the sand shaded by the rock overhang. So confusing

My gen 4 pro are at 50%

 

[Katrina71]

@Crabby48 that gives me hope that he'll be ok in mine. Just curious, do those have a lot of blue and violet?

 

[Katrina71]

@Crabby48 are yours xr15 or xr30?

 

[Crabby48]

Not sure if f they have more blue and Violet compared to other lights. You can add what I think is a lot of red and green and cool and warm white. I use 100% blues and Violet. Red, green, and whites are 20%.

You will be fine.

 

[Crabby48]

Mine are xr30 gen4 pro

Long day installing a new security light and toilet at my friend's house. Our new toadstool didn't extend his polyps yet. @12gallonsofhex and @Crabby48 I finally got a head count on the Duncan. Only 5. I think y'all beat me! I don't remember what we bet. I will make good on it though.

I believe there was no bet, just sharing our happy Duncans.

There she is off in the distance to the left. That is the dingy that brings you to the doc for lunch.

Beautiful!

Ai Sol blues are so outdated. Finding anything for them is impossible! I was looking for an over the tank option for my Biocube jic for the nem. I have the hanging kit, but can't find "feet".

I agree

Not familiar with the fixture really but I have an extra set of Black Box feet/legs that might work as short term solution. probably not pretty but might work? Mount the bracket to the tank rim and rest the LED on top of the arms? Or I could send the SBReefLight with the legs....

I'm trying to make this work. I may just be an idiot. Let me Google those legs and see if I could drill out my rails to accept legs like that. Do you remember where you got those?

They came with the SBReeflight. Im just not using them at the moment. Rather than drill I could send the legs and light down. theyre plenty powerful enough for a BTA at 30% and have great color renidtion. i almost like them more than my Orpheks to be honest...

@Scurvy I love your heart, but I can't afford to replace it if something happened. This at least gives me ideas.

Oh stop it, Theyre just as likely to explode in my closet than they would above your tank! Don't risk breaking something you need for the cube build. Heck you might even want to keep it for the cube once you see the colors it brings out. I'm already boxing it up :)

No. Please. I do appreciate the thought. I may have found something.

I dont think you have a choice.

OK, If you change your mind just say so... Honestly theyre doing nobody any good in my closet.
