Mine is 48x24x24

I had originally considered going with two, however with a 4x2 tank I was concern with the chance of having the spotlight effect so after a discussion with Martin of Modular LED, I decided to go with three units and Martin made the rails for my light.

FWIW, as a LED hater, I was really impressed seeing Shelley's Radions. Really nice light and no noticeable disco ball effect.

That is a great idea. I will certainly be looking for them

Colours are so much more vibrant than MH... Even the fish looks better!

Haha! My two sons love them. One of their fav movies is Finding Nemo. I think we have a total of seven. Cade came over and did more work around the stand... Now just waiting for the doors...

Since my last post I have been working on maintenance such as setting up the ATO, cleaning the tank and equipment and made some changes to the aqua scape. the new rock formation allows more flow and openness for fish to swim about. The Mp60 and Mp40 are synced with each other and to the Radions. Will be looking at adding three more fish and then leaving it on auto pilot. Here is probably my last pic with the iPhone ( Brad has been giving me a hard time on this LOL) and will try to update on a monthly basis with pics of FTS and SPS growth over time.

Tank parameter update:
CA-480
Mg-1410
Alk-6 (working on this)
Radion-70%-artificial mode

Nice! Once all those frags grow in it will be just stunning!
