KY_acc’s Red Sea Max E-170 Build thread

Yes! Finally have something to show — ended up picking up some frags from @CherryCorals (great experience as usual)

picked up a torch, some hammers and an Oregon tort

tank has been doing well since identifying low phos / nitrate and starting to dose tropic Marin plus np

thanks for looking

Everything looks amazing I have a question if you don't mind answering. What's the coral in the last picture? I have one that looks similar and in having issues iding it. If you don't mind.

Curious if there are any updates on your tank?

Hi there thanks for the interest!

I have actually moved a few times since, but that gave me the opportunity to start a new bigger build!

I’m now in a redsea 625xl g2 — things are getting settled but still a long ways to go. I should probably get a proper build thread started up when I can find the time

Here’s a shot of the new system for now though :) (warning, im really bad a photographing the tank, I should work on that…)

@krystinaxlea - it is Jason fox enchanted forest birdsnest, awesome coral!

Enjoying the 170 tank pics. I have the same and am going to upgrade to a sump, likely the same as yours. What confuses me is that when I run my RSLED90, at 23000K and 70%, the corals seem to not be as happy as when lower. I have a mixed reef with a few SPS on top and LPS and Zoas in lower 1/3 and in the sand. They just don’t open like yours. Maybe I’ve got to zoom in on my water parameters. In any case, thanks for sharing this super valuable information.
