Over the last few months I've made so many changes to the tank.

I took the 2 XR30 G4 Radions off and I went with the @AquaticLifeProducts T5 Hybrid Fixture with 2 Kessil A360.

  • I wanted that Kessil shimmer back. I really did miss it.
  • I didn't want to worry about spectrum. Kessil and T5 are choose the color you want, the bulbb combo that gives you the color you want. Turn them on and go.
I also added the Neptune Systems LSM for moonlight.

Its my first time running T5s and I love it. I like the colors that the corals are showing.

Cord management could be better but for $300 bucks I can't complain. I would not have spend over $1000 on a Geisemann or ATI fixture to try them out.

I'm also trying to simplify my tank. I'm a gadget person and my tank has turned into my new outlet for that.

I keep testing lights, refugium lights, modules, dosers - I pledge to stop and let the tank breath. (as much as I can)

Here is a tank update I shot the other day.

Yay! You weren't lying ;Hilarious(about updating)

The tank looks great! I really like that #aquaticlife fixture. Did you ever make a video on switching to the #triton method? Thumb through your youtube videos now.

Thanks.

I didn't, I am working on it but battling the flu makes doing a voiceover hard.

Take your time. I would like to hear how switching over went. If it was a smooth transition or a bumpy one. Is it convenient? etc. Thanks!

How are you liking the bulb combo for the t5's? I saw in the other thread you're going with 2 x Blue plus and 1 Coral plus and 1 Actinic. I just ordered that exact line up and same fixture as you for my Reefer 250.

I see you put in some gyres. Are you using a preprogrammed mode or did you have to Manually set it up for the 350s layout? My hammers are getting blown to bits swith the ice cap 3k, it’s on Random and max at the 50%. Haven’t quite figured out how to turn that specific setting down yet but was wondering where you paced yours in the tank and what flow % you were using. We’re really struggling. To dim the right amount t of flow. Current rock scape attaches, ignore the red arrow that was for a come t about my dang goby lol
