No we didn't noticed, thanks for reminding us.
Dang dude, how long? eating good and happy plates? Reef save with caution?
Will be stalking this little Gem cause I'm looking for a stocking stuffer.
Congrats!!
That is such a striking fish! Beautiful specimen too. Hope it does well in your system.
Gorgeous display tank and frag tanks. I'm getting back into sps slowly. I'm really impressed with the results you have gotten with just using LEDs for your sticks and the colors are fantastic. Question: What is your current lighting configuration on your 400 gallon display with photo periods, light intensity and how high are the led above the display? Thanking you in advance.
Thanks for the hope-unfortunately fish have still been dying, I'm about to lose my most favorite, long before the tinker its a red headed wrasse.Oh man, so sorry! Thats a lot of fish to lose...Hope the rest fare better and recover fully.
Thanks!
The config is just the D120 3 wide-3 deep. I have the blue channel on for 12 hours total and the white channel comes an hour after the blues come on and off an hour before they shut of-similar to old days dusk to dawn when running halide with T5.
I have the channels at about 50 percent and roughly 20" above the tank. Its not that high of par, maybe 350 at the top and 200 on the sand bed-the frag tanks are roughly reading par levels of 275.
Before the Evergrows I had built fixtures from Bill at Reef LED lights way back in the day when it was a 2:1 ratio Cool White to Royal Blue.
I also ran the Ocean Revive Artics and the 247, I'm a huge fan of the 247 and was running them before I switched up the frag tanks and since overhead space was a restriction I went back and built fixtures again. I think the color was a little better with the 247. The color may be a PAR issue and I've been thinking for months about adding a few more diodes, I just haven't and probably won't LOL
for the money the Ocean Revive 247 fixtures are sweet, I've told the owner they should be selling for 40% more hahaha! I think they could stand toe to toe with any LED fixture out there, minus the bells in whistles ie Apex controllable etc
Thanks for the quick response! So 6 of these D120 can push this much light, cover a 6' x 4' wide area and grow sps with superior colors is totally awesome! Thanks for sharing your results and I know where to candy shop in the future. :wink:
9 fixtures -3x3
what a gorgeous system!
What skimmer do you run?
Hey there, I was just reading that you have a swabbie for your skimmer. I recently upgraded my skimmer to a vertex omega 180i w neck cleaner. You said you turn yours on x4 per day. How many hours apart do you suggest running it, and for how long each time? Thanks!
