2 of the 4 reefi uno2 programmed and brackets assembled! I am excited about these lights!!!

I have three on my 180 and they are great…and Daniel’s customer service is even better!

Hello! If possible, I know this is not what you want to hear, but you might want to reconsider ordering from planet. I had a lot of drama in working with them on my latest custom build. Not fun. I recommend AGE. I’ve got a contact over there if you want to DM me.

I actually already have the tank in my house. I didn’t have any issues. Hate to hear you did.

I saw that! I edited my post! Haha. Good luck great tank!

Thank you! I am excited to eventually get water in it. Good luck on your build.

I'm glad you got your tank! I had so much drama with Planet I ordered elsewhere as well

Looking forward to the build! I am expecting delivery of my 180 planet tank this week if the local ice storm doesn’t mess that up

Nice, you will have to share your build thread.

Sounds like planet is having some issues! Where did you end up ordering yours from?

Custom Aquariums in WI. I really like the idea of a framed tank, guess I'll find out if it was a good idea or not

Installed cord inserts on the light mounts, really cleaned them up. Making progress on the rocks, will post a preview later this week. Ordered an apex as well, should be here Wednesday.

Looking good. I hope to see mine tomorrow at least get to the lfs. I’m interested in your flow. Are you planning for any more than the two gyres?
I have 4 ea xf330s. I’m hoping one on each end and two on the back wall pushing forward will give what I need. I’ve been very happy with two of them in my 4’ long 65 gallon.

I think I will eventually add 2 octopulse to the back. I have been considering a wave engine to control them all.

Got my apex mounted.

2 more of my fish in QT

Got my pinpoint calibrated. Ready to start mixing saltwater to have enough ready when I get ready.

Rockwork is coming along slowly but surely.
