That's a really nice looking tank, I can only imagine how nice the 80g will end up looking! Any pics of it so far, what are the dims on an 80g cube? It's drilled I guess?
How do you like the blade light?
Thanks. Too bad the glass is so foggy. Went onto that on the 80g build. you can see it here
The Blades are really nice big change to what I was used to 14 years ago. I really like Kessils I have 3 160 tuna suns over my 125 fahaka tank. Was really torn on the cube build was thinking about the ap9x but at $800 I was wishy washy.

If you're able to put your camera in manual or pro mode, try adjusting the white balance up as close to 10k as you can. Some post editing (lowering blue, adjusting tint, etc) may get you even closer but the white balance is the biggest thing you can do.

Phone so no pro or manual that I know of. I look into it. I have an older dslr somewhere I may try to mess with that a bit.
