Thanks! My nutrient level is a little high so the SPS handle the light well. I still have the rainbow tenuis. It has some red but not crazy like in the past. The color is improving all the time though :)

I used to have a 60 cube. I used 2 vortech Mp10 and the flow was good. One in the front, one in the back on the opposing side.

Looking great. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks buddy!

Good to hear Tom. Glad you have that piece going on the west coast. I've had the red under halide, all t5, and now under all LED. It look best under the halide, but whenever it showed any red under various lightings, my nutrient level climbed up a little. Nitrate level of 15ppm and .03 po4 had it looking it's best. It's only 3 months under the Radion G4's, I'm hoping I can get it to look as vibrant as I did in the past.

I used mp10's on 1/2" glass before and they held. You will be fine on 10mm

ok cool ill pick some up thanks for the help

 

[Thegoodson]

so i got a really good deal on a mp 40 that i couldnt pass up..until i cam get another one what mode and power would you suggest ill put up a picture of my rock work

 

[jackson6745]

mp40 will create a sandstorm if you run too high. I would suggest 40% nutrient removal mode (purple). As your sandbed matures it will be able to handle a little more flow.
