Year anniversary of my 40 cube sps tank

On the first of this month my nano hit its 1 year anniversary. I've never posted pics of this tank but thought I'd show it off for its bday. I'll post more tonight when I'm home.

That's a great looking tank, congratulations on the years success. Whats your lighting set up looks intense.

Any shots of the years progress?

When i get home I'll look through my pics and see if i can find some progression pics. Thanks for the kind words. I run 2 hydra 26s on the ab+ schedule slightly modified. Then 4 t5 aquablue special bulbs and 2 reefbrite xho actinics to hit the acros under the branches and balance out the white aquablue t5s. I have a 2 hours ramp up and down on the hydras. Reefbrites and hydras on a total of 12 hours the t5 is on for 10.

Keep up the good work! Years ago I had a 40gallon with sps colonies. It’s will look phenomenal! Don’t change what you’re doing!

Yes AI hydra 26s. It's the sister company to radion.

Kind of. Ecotech Marine bought AI because they were EM biggest competition in a small market, better to make profit off the competition then to risk loosing money to them. Notice how no EM tech has moved over to the AI line. AI is still the slightly lower powered and lower cost LED compared to EM.
