So my SCA 90 gallon was delivered, sump was back ordered will be shipped this week.
Purchased 2 of the Reefi Unos for lighting should more than be enough to grow anything in a 36x24x24 display, I think could have done it with one on a mixed tank but wanted to keep shadowing down and be able to grow anything I may want.
Don't know if there is anyone with any complaints about Reefi lights. If they last and work well they should be good value. Two Unos should exceed any Radion XR30 in spread, par and without needing a diffuser or having glitches in the software. Dealing with Daniel is easy but still not well known brand and what happens to Reefi if something happens to Daniel, problem with all smaller private companies. I prefer to buy from smaller private companies when possible.
With Daniel's big tank he setup 10ft x 42 x 36 tall he has 10 Unos on it. It looks nice.
If you went with Radions xr30 you would still need at least 10 Radions, cost 3 times as much as going Reefi Uno.
When sump arrives the work begins.

A jawbreaker shroom + a dragon soul torch. Both are on sale right now so I'm going to jump on that soon.

So, it wasn't exactly a "planned" purchase.. but, over the last week, I have been seeing an increase in GHA in my tank. Since I prefer a natural remedy over chemical treatments, I headed off to the (not so) LFS in search of an herbivore.. I was hoping to find a nice tang, but no such luck. After considering a few options, I settled on a Klein Butterfly. He's a bit larger than I was hoping for, but since he will be moved into the new tank as soon as it is ready I went ahead and pulled the trigger.

While I was there I also picked up a chunk of rock that is just brimming with life! I will open a new thread with photos later to hopefully get some IDs...

A glass top as soon as I can find one to fit my XL425 Reefer. I’m done with frames and mesh that eventually fall apart. Does anyone have any ideas about finding glass ones?

Flame hawk

A little fearful of the Hawk as I'd like shrimp too. Had one years ago with no issues but all the experience here tells me their might be casualties
