Thanks for checking this out… I set up my Waterbox 60.2 early July, and it has progressed nicely and was taking shape to be a really nice LPS/mixed reef. Long story short, the SPS bug bit me bad and a lot of those corals ended up getting moved into my 75 gallon mixed reef. I’m in the process of tweaking this tank to be in tune to growing as an SPS dominant reef. Pretty excited actually, and have dove deep into research. I’d like if I could get some opinions as to my setup and see if there are any recommendations to add/delete/change, etc.

Here is the run down on my setup:

WB60.2 tank, and stand with included sump
ReefOcto SS150
2 x 150w Jager on InkBird
Orphek OR3 60 led bar setup on an Osix
Bar layout:
-blue plus
-violet reef day
-blue sky
-violet reef dat
-blue plus
PAR is 400 about 4” from the water surface and about 180 on the sand
Hydros XP8 and Control 4- ATO, heat redundancy, etc. and will be adding PH probe(s)
WaveEngine with 4 x OctoPulse 2’s
Currently dosing AFR via Kamoer
Avastmarine kalk stirrer will be setup shortly to dose evaporation
Sicce 2.0 return pump
Setting up a SantaMonica HOG1x soon as well


I just put my first round of SPS in (not including the orange digi that has been in since I set the tank up, wanted to use it as some sort of barometer). Some stylo, forest fire digi, lime in the sky stag, and another couple other acro frags. Everyone seems happy, good PE, etc, and I want to make sure I’m on the right track. Think that may be about it (?) Slapped a couple pics up so you guys can go to town and let me know shortcomings on this build lol. Be nice… I actually do think this tank is in a good spot as I look down the road long term! Also put up my lighting schedule.

Thanks in advance..

Oh I forgot to add I also have a Kamoer KH Carer, I’ll be able to integrate alk with Hydros through that and dose or dynamic dose.

And a reactor for carbon, GFO, etc what is needed.
