I think I will mount the ballast this way since i am bascially dry in the cabinet . It does take up a lot of room though ..

Why don't you mount the ballast on the piece of cardboard and hide it behind the stand.

So you are back with the ATI hybrid now? It is a 4 or 8 bulb? What bulbs are you using?

Were you familiar with Takashi Amano? A very sad loss.

Thank you. I like them too .Tank is going thru algae cycle now. Kinda driving me a lil bonkers. There are is a lot of color coming out the rock. Corals are appearing on the rock too. Lots of macro algae with micro trying to take over.
Light brown to green film on glass that builds up every few days.
DKH is close to 8 now...woot woot.

Once the ceriths , banded trochus n one turbo snail that came with the live rock . The right side grinds on me with the left being pretty clean.

Good plating purple goodies on the rock.

Thanks Revtree ...
I am aware .Just wasn't sure how large the pic would be so I don't click anything ..
I'll try it out in a few ..

Well the QT tank was looking like green pea soup from meds n such . I tried several small water changes to no avail .
It's looking pretty sparse in there since I only had the frags in here to clean the plugs .
I did a 100 % water change and broke it all down n cleaned it all up pump , tubing etc .
I had to get help to carry the tank to the bathroom to clean it since the padding n tank r stuck to the board .. Ha Ha.
