Hello everyone. I got a small office tank to tinker with and have been running for about a month now.

Specs :
Heater - Aquael Ultra Heater 25W
Tank - Lifgard Aquatics 4.1 G
Light - Kessil A 80 Tuna Blue
Pump - Lifegard quiteone pump ( I think 200 )
Controller - Raspberry Pi running Reef Pi
Saltwater Mix - Red Sea Coral Pro + RODI water
Sand - Caribsea
Fan - Random PC cooling fan
Filtration - Floss

I have the Reef-Pi running the cooling fan when the tank starts to get warm, it is also connected to a float switch and pump for ATO control. I am trying to work on the Reef-Pi light control with the A80 and in the future I may do dosing control. Its a fun tank to work with, I stay on the safe side and do a 1 gallon water change every week.

Great choice on the Kessil A80 for that tank!
