Well it's about that time to upgrade. Might be a little slow as I'm working on a few other builds for others right now and they take priority. Here is the list of components:
DIY 96x24x24 1/2" Acrylic (Might cut the width down to 20", havent finalized yet)
- Got an idea for a new overflow design I'm going to try out
- Center Overflow with a few dry sections to house the MP40es' and WP60's
DIY 72x20x18 3/8" Acrylic 3 Section Sump
DIY 1.5x1.5x11ga Metal Stand
- Skinned w/ Knotty Alder
DIY Knotty Alder Canopy w/ 6 Total Fans (3 pushing in/3 pulling out)
(4) 250w MH (Two Lumenmax 3, Two ROIII)
- One fixture will be swapped out with a DIY LED Radion Build, if it turns out good then all will be swapped out gradually
(2) Icecap 660's pushing T5's and VHO's for supplementation (these might be removed depending on how good the LED's turn out)
Reef Angel+ Controller (will use my ACIII in the meantime)
Jebao DC12000 for Return Pump feeding all Reactors also
Reeflo Dart w/ OM 4-way for Closed Loop
(2) MP40es
(2) Jebao WP60's
DIY Ozone Reactor
DIY 10" Calcium Reactor
DIY Media Reactor
Tank will be primarily SPS with a few softies and clams. Going to try to go as fast as I can without sacrificing the build quality. Really trying to get a CNC built as well which could REALLY speed up alot of the fabrication that I'll be doing. Build might be a little slow because I got a little one who will be here GOD-willing next week. Here are some pics so far of the LED build that I've started:
CREE XP-E Amber LED (2)
CREE XP-G2 5W Cool White LED (8)
CREE XP-G Neutral White (2)
CREE XP-E Green 3W LED (4)
CREE XP-E Blue 3W LED (8)
CREE XT-E Royal Blue LED (10)
Philips Rebel ES 660nm (4)
Total Spectrum Violet UV LED (2)
Violet UV LED (2)
Channel 1 (1000mA max) - CREE XP-G2 5W Cool White LED (8) & CREE XP-G Neutral White (2)
Channel 2 (1000mA max) - CREE XP-G R5 7up Cool White (2) -> Refugium
Channel 3 (1000mA max) - CREE XP-E Blue 3W LED (8)
Channel 4 (1000mA max) - CREE XT-E Royal Blue LED (10)
Channel 5 (700mA max) - Philips Rebel ES 660nm (4) & CREE XP-E Green 3W LED (4)
Channel 6 (700mA max) - Total Spectrum Violet UV LED (2) Violet UV LED (2) Channel 7 (700mA max) - Open
Channel 8 (500mA max) - CREE XP-E Amber LED (2)
All the above is laid out in two clusters w/ 60 degree optics. All will be run on a StormX Controller, already built a plexi box to house the power supply, controller, two 8ups and DB15 BreakOuts for quick connects to fixtures. The heatsink will be inside a black acrylic enclosure with cutouts for fans and lenses
Love the color so far. Need to play with the StormX controller now. Waiting on my DB15 breakout boards to I can create quick disconnects from fixture to power supply box. Will start on the enclosure in the meantime.
Stay Tuned!
