Ah, yes. This tank is no longer! V2.0 has been retired and V3.0 is up and running.

You can see the NEW tank build thread here: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/maroon-lagoon-v3-0.668695/

It's been a week full of lighting projects. First I removed my hood and tore out the lights and revamped it. So far I'm pleased with the result, I definitely have more control over lighting intensity and coloration throughout the day.

My current setup running everything at 100% looks the closest to a sunlit reef I have ever seen. It's not quite in line with the current fad of all actinics all the time, but I like the natural look and I'm excited to see the results on coral health and growth.

I also tore apart my Orphek Atlantik and replaced the V1 guts with V4 diodes and board. I can now control this light better too, it will be going over a species specific tank in the future.

Phew! That was a lot of light projects for one week [emoji28]

Do you still have the controller you used on the V1 before upgrading it? I have a V1 that I can not change the light schedule on.

I think it might be in a box somewhere?

I would buy it if you can find it. I need one real bad to change my lighting schedule.

I’ll take a look for it. Hopefully I didn’t toss it during my last move
