Just a couple tank shots today. Still tweaking things, getting a little build up on the sand...this is my favorite part! Futzing with it until it is my version of perfect!

Thanks lol I don't know, I like my softies. As long as it grows and does well. I tried some fancy stuff and all I have to show for it is 1 WWC OG Bounce. I also need to work on my lighting, I am trying a more natural white light look and my colors don't pop near as much as some of the Acro tanks!I see a future “reef spotlight” here

Yep I now have 4 Radion Gen 3, and...I am pretty sure they are ATI AquaBlue, Blue Special, and whites?

Just read through your build. What a beautiful tank ! ! ! And a nice looking stand too. Coo-dos to your Dad ! ! Nice to have your own little fishroom too
I used to run T5’s all Giesemann bulbs.
One thing I like was the tropic bulb.
It’s a daylight bulb but with the combo of the others it never looked washed out.
Have to find the color combo for you when I get home.

Hi! Oh yeah, still reefing away! I am going to switch out T5 bulb to see if I can get some better color. Not super happy with that, but wasn't going to waste the bulbs. Wanting to get closer to what @Diesel has and or MikeC's tank. Everything is just kinda dullAny updates? Following along with interest
No complaints about going bigger however! My motion life hold true...Go Big or Go Home!

Holy moly it has been a LONG time since I updated this! I LOVE looking at these old pics though. Here are a few more current shots.
Not much has changed equipment wise. Finally learned how to properly adjust my protein skimmer, put my wide lenses on the Radions. Keeping it simple lol

Speaking of Holy Moly
Your reef is gorgeous!!
I really love how the aquascape allows for everything to grow out fully.
Those toadstools are huge!
BTW my toadstool is doing great and has grown considerably since October. Thank you!
