Figured I'd show my (unfinished but almost complete) ZooMed Lowboy 50 gallon tank inspired by the build TippinTurtle put on here a few years back. (and the small WB25 tank)

Pic 1 is showing the tanks under full light (ATI 6-bulb T5 -- 4 blue plus, 1 coral plus, 1 actinic -- and OR3 Blue LED).

Pic 2 is showing the tanks under just the OR3 Blue LED.


I'm hoping to get the doors on so I can show off the whole thing in case anyone wants a unique tank like the ZooMed Lowboy!
 
Looks great! I hope it's progressing well. I love the shallow tank look.
It was doing awesome until I had to leave for a month and I had pump failures + apex alarm failures that resulted in no flow for 18 hours. The end result was a loss in all my euphylia, every SPS, some chalices, and a few other corals. All but one fish made it luckily so I am in the restart phase as things settle post-nitrate bomb!
