Updated my frag/qt tank for fun. Used my old 40 breeder and threw in a sump baffle/weir from Tenecor to give the tank a large AIO kinda sump and got a Photon 16”

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it lol…I literally have no idea how my corals are doing so well against all commonly accepted measurements.
My pH is 7.8-8 daily swing.
Many acros are only getting 200 PAR! The big center colonies are getting 300-350. I think lower PAR from T5 must be ok because it wraps the coral in light. The actinic and purple plus are crappy par output compared to B+ and C+, I should probably swap them out but it’s tough to change anything when a good number of corals just grow explosively.
You’re not wrong!If it ain’t broke don’t fix it lol…
Lovely tank by the way!!! I’m impatiently waiting for mine to grow out! Some day I’ll have a problem on my hands but for now I just keep stuffing frags trying to fill this beast up! Haha..You’re not wrong!
Thanks!Lovely tank by the way!!! I’m impatiently waiting for mine to grow out! Some day I’ll have a problem on my hands but for now I just keep stuffing frags trying to fill this beast up! Haha..
Same.. got a few bigger colonies but for the most part 100 or so frags lolThanks!
I will say the benefit of a tank full
of coral is they act as their own filtration system. All I run is a protein skimmer and still struggle with low nitrate and phosphate.
Sorry I missed this. Tank is looking great. Too good even where I need to upgrade or reset. Large update coming:How's the tank looking?!
Enjoy and keep the pics comming.After a long hunt got a Hamilton 150w halide over the frag tank thanks to an absolute legend @X-37B !!
Everything looking a bit washed out will take some time to show actual color vs just the pop from blue LEDs.
Phoenix 14k in the fixture looking pretty much like a dimmer Radium.
Fine I ordered a new tank!
