Those colors are amazing! Will you be adding fish or just sticking with coral for now?

Hey, just stumbled on this build thread and absolutely love your setup. I have a WB20 with some similar equipment. Just curious, what does your nero 3 schedule/intensity look like?

Thanks! The nero 3’s are great, I have both of mine on variable settings, pulse mode maxed out at 85% and on the random mode I mix it up

Dragon soul torch, pink and gold hammers are the latest additions

Looking good! Things are gonna be tight when those acro frags become colonies ;) A good problem to have nonetheless.

What's this little gizmo sitting next to the tank with the orange lights on?

You’re right it’s gunna be a challenge! The box is a cable management thing, nothing fancy but helps keep tidy

Looking great! I have the same tank. I'm wondering if you've tried the Nero 3s on the back wall? I was thinking of getting them but having at the back. Did you not get enough flow there or just prefer them where you have them?
