What did you get today?

[fish farmer]

I went to Home Depot and bought miscellaneous plumbing supplies, mostly stuff for a kalk reactor, tubing for basement ATO and a cactus and soil for the atoll.

Tanks about to shut down for the night sorry they are rainbow glimmer palys from @YourReef

 

[Somuchflo99]

They were the first coral for the tank

 

[Tedzilla]

I was totally teasing. Cool, I'll have to check them out.

 

[Somuchflo99]

They look a lot cooler in person

 

[Tedzilla]

Oh nice. Right on... I am jealous... I'm still in my first week of cycling my new tank, at a new house.

 

[Somuchflo99]

I kinda jumped the gun but wanted to test the waters and play with the lighting if they aren’t diggin it I can put them in my other much more mature tank but the seem to be doing great

 

[Tedzilla]

I bet they love those blues... What lights/bulbs are you running?

 

[Somuchflo99]

Views from earlier today

 

[Somuchflo99]

Running full spectrum led that came with the jbj 28 gal aio set up I’m really digging it 40 watt

 

[Tedzilla]

Yeah... Wow... That's no joke. I love it when companies who market full setups- actually give you a full setup.

 

[Somuchflo99]

the lights are controlled via app wich is really cool

 

[Tedzilla]

I'm actually digressing from LEds for the moment, and going straight T5 on my current build. I tinkered with my last LED setup too much, because it was so fun... Burned a couple corals pretty bad. So now I am going with an off/on switch. lol

 

[Tedzilla]

Sorry NinnJinn... Hijacking your thread.

 

[Somuchflo99]

My other all in one was more in cost and I feel ya my other one has a kessil a80 wich is on of the smaller versions they have and I’ve roasted a few on accident I’ve thought about going t5 or even t5 hybrids but like u said I’m having fun

 

[Tedzilla]

Yeah, LEDs are sick. I just ordered a full mod setup for my freshwater shrimp tank, to keep me satiated.

 

[Somuchflo99]

Yea my bad ninnjinn and thanks Ted Zilla I’ll definitely be fallowing both u guys and I will be updating my builds this week I would love to see your shrimp tank tedzilla freshwater aquascaping was like my gateway drug to saltwater lol

 

[Tedzilla]

Yeah, let me get it looking decent again. It kind of went neglected for a bit, and I need to get some algae under control. It had nothing in it but assassin snails for like six months until a week ago. My light crapped out, which is a good thing at this point probably. So I ordered the light when I ordered the gyre. I'm actually starting a few tanks... I had 8 shrimp tanks in San Diego before coming here, and was a breeder. My LFS has offered to buy from me, so going full shrimp mode again. lol I followed you also, and I'll hit you up soon to show you. ttyl
