I don't like canopies. But for some reason your whole setup is making me love it man!

Beautiful set-up. How is the cycle going?

Cycles done. Been stocked with fish and corals for 2 weeks.

Lol. Thanks.

I agree, I love the look of a floating light fixture, and an open top tank. BUT since I went DIY, it was much easier to just cram it all inside a canopy. And my fiancé HATES when light spills out into the room. We go to peoples houses with no canopies, and she doesn't get how people deal with it.

How do you like the mp60's? Im wondering if 1 will work for my setup.

Been a while since I checked your build thread. Looks like things are coming along nicely.

They are a little loud. Kinda bummed about that. BUT the way that they move water is way worth it. I had a Chinese wp60 in the tank while it was cycling, and it was garbage compared to the Vortech pumps.

Thanks man.

Still need to redo my aquascape and tidy up wires down below. Also had one of my led drivers go bad. I traded a guy for some used drivers, so I was kind if expecting it. No biggie, already have a replacement ready to go. Also need to get my vertex reactor and calcium reactor going. After that, the build is done. Then time to sit back and enjoy the darn thing

 

[ReeferEric]

Same here, need to get my calcium reactor in line. Currently it's back to two part but silly me, I'm missing a pH probe for the tank. LOL

Maybe this weekend if you have time we would enjoy seeing a video of the flow inside your DT.......hint....hint:)

Been super busy getting ready for a big engagement party at my house. I'll update in a week or two once I chill out and relax.

Little update, my skimmer is starting to kick butt

My Darrel (All Delight) acan collection

I know it's super blue, but at least u can see they are fat and happy. Had them for a few months now.

 

[SchnitzelReef]

Couple random pics. Hoping this weekend I can get down on my aquascape and finish this build. Just need to hook up the calcium reactor and clean up the apex wires down below.

Prolly time to get my vertex reactor all hooked up, been having to clean my glass every 2 days. Phosphates must be high.
