That's the Kessil. He has 3 different lights he's going to try. My tank has the K7 Mini

Ahhh gotcha ... still a bit undecided on which light to get .. I'm from Canada.. AI prime here is $300+ here CDN lol

A little nervous buying from off-brand that could die out within a year or light quality is meh

Here's the dimensions of the 2nd chamber. I plan on putting a skimmer there. We have approx 4x3 inch to play with.

I bought a Bubble Magus Mini Q, still waiting for it to arrive. I think it'll fit well.

 

[tydeck]

Will do. Tank is coming tomorrow I hope.

I picked up this tiny power head for the tank. Hygger mini wave maker.

Have that one ready for mine.

I put the UV in that chamber. No skimmer for me.

What fish are you planning?

 

[Tuan’s Reef]

Not sure but I think I am going to put my 3 pajama cardinals in there.

I was considering a Cardinal but they get big. I have a Tailspot Blenny, a possum wrasse, cleaner shrimp in mine.

Had a chance to do some Par testing this morning on the Noop's K7 Mini . Light is mounted 8" above the water. I am able to get superb par numbers all around my tank. Will test again when rocks is in the tank to show Par numbers in the real world. I am impressed.

 

[JoJosReef]

Seriously thinking about that light as a supplement for a clam. Looking forward to your numbers!

The stock fusion 15 return pump is very weak and a bit noisy as well. Ordered a new dc return pump with way more power.

Still looking for a skimmer.

the PAR number is "crazy" for 60W light

Seriously thinking of doing one of these and using it as a sps quarantine tank for my big tank I’m building.

Ya, I upgraded to the Mightyjet 326 right away, didn't even give the stock pump a chance, i now use it for my salt mix pump. I find flow to be perfect with the Mightyjet, granted I'm using the spinstream.

It really is crazy. I have zero doubts this one light can grow SPS anywhere in my tank. You would think the PAR drops off on the sides but it doesn't. its even stronger lol

Intriguing ... hoping to find a cheaper alternative to AI prime $300+ here in canada... just wished more longer time experience with the k7 mini to ensure it good long term

I always hear AI prime locally where I live to be the choice of light

 

[takoarm8]

Are you gonna test the x15 radion?

 

[Tuan’s Reef]

yes, most definitely will test the Radion. Will test all 3 lights i have for the tank. I currently have the Kessil A160 mounted and will test that next. I will say the shimmer on the K7 Mini is less pronounced than the Kessil.

 

[takoarm8]

What are you doing for rocks, sand, pods? Any other cycling additives?
