Add some sweet wireless motion detecting LEDs for under tank. They run on 3 aaa and have cool built in adjustable angle brackets. 2 for $20 at Costco

Thanks! The tank is only a couple months old so I'm sticking to Zoas right now. I'm covering the tree structure on the front right of the tank. I have around 15 different frags stuck to it, I'm going to add another 5 or 10 to it and just let it fill out.

How do you like that light? Curious for my next build. What happened to the cerameco structure? Great build.

Sounds like a good project :)

I have the rodi up and running, my goal is the be able to do a water change by turning on a pump and opening a valve to drain 20gallons of tank water from the sump out the ro waste drain pipe, then opening a valve to let 20gallons of fresh saltwater gravity drain in to the sump. Should take less then 5 minutes to do a water change and no lugging water around;)
