[coralcrazy]

I def like the t5 supplements. Makes the tank look great. And 4 raises my water approx. 2 degrees about 12" awl. Good luck and let us know what u decide and show us some pics.

Will do. Thanks again.

Got everything up and running this morning. Spent all week prepping and painting. I'm going to start off by running them 4 hours a day and see how my corals react.

Thanks for all you inputs.

To early to tell. I'm getting about 100 more PAR pretty evenly spread out throughout the tank.

I need to do some color adjustments.

Overall coverage is great, lights up where LEDs don't.

Really looking forward to see how corals react.


Will report back in a week.

May need to split one in the front and one in the back if you don't get the spread

I know. The led is more toward the front though. Will see.

Hi there. Where did you get the metal material for this build. Would you do it this way again?
