Dipping my toes back into some reefing I mean I took what four months off? that's crazy! the 27 cube was a little much for me I'm pretty fond of picos/nanos so went with a 4g

caddlight 2013 StaarFire glass euro pico 4 gal LED reef system

*Modern Slim Profile LED lighting system 3.8W. Triple Panel LED bands with 3000 LUX/Fc @6" of light output equivalent to 24W of T5HO.
* Tank dimensions are 10" x 10" x 11"
* Multi-chambered Reef filtration system
* 100% Acrylic filtration for a true deep black background.
* 75GPH pump for a turn over rate of 18X.
* NEW Linear + Seamless design.
*High Starfire glass Clarity seamless single panel.

anyone have any ideas on what should be the stars of the show?
would like to stay away from any fish I feel 4 gal. to be way to small for pretty much everything maybe some type of shrimp I wanna do a mix of shrooms/zoes/ some more hardy

I think some sexy shrimp would be great in that size tank.

If your wishing to keep zoas I highly recommend you stay away from Sexy Shrimp. I have 2 and they've terrorized my zoas :( When they're not hosting my Maxi Mini's they're on my zoas. I've since taken to feeding more frozen meaty foods just to keep them off the zoas.

Hey I was looking at this or the 8 gallon tank today, One question I have though is that on the reefbuilders.com article it says that the lights are dimmable as well as adjustable but it doesnt mention that anywhere on the cadlights website, Can you give me some insight as to what is the real deal with the lights

light info was in the first post
*Modern Slim Profile LED lighting system 3.8W. Triple Panel LED bands with 3000 LUX/Fc @6" of light output equivalent to 24W of T5HO
The light dose support coral growth sps is a whole different question tho because I really haven't seen it done but I'll let you know once i get the tank cycled if it dose or not I have no idea if you can buy the light fixture itself but then again the whole thing only cost me like 110 dollars on black friday.

CAD Lights, "Thinking outside the cube"


and I have no idea whats going in it yet someone throw me some good ideas
