I know its not the ideal size to some but after much contemplating and deliberation it is the current size I would like and would fit in space allotted to it.

48 inch 4 bulb T5 fixture with 2 ati blue plus, 1 ati aquablue special and 1 ati purple plus
50lbs of dry rock cycling and another 50lbs bleach curing

Future

Return u pipe
vivo sun 800 gph return pump
2x super aquatic jvp-102a
