It is indeed. We've got a few really cool builds on the go and we will post them here on Canreef. The Microsoft one will be very nice, but I'm most excited about this one: http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=85097

Can you give us some specs on those lights and any type of "Controller" you're using on that system?

It looks SWEET!

Oh that's why they named it "iReef" ? LOL! (I didn't start this LOL)

It looks stunning as does their 185 Deep Reef build!!

Looks like a awesome set up can't wait to see it stocked up.

subman 04-13-2012 06:11 PM

Sure! It's a Vertex Illumina LED fixture. In my opinion they are the nicest lighting option available.

This is the fixture before installing red auxiliary modules. Each space between the pads you see can accommodate an auxiliary module which are currently available in red and royal blue. More colors to come in the future.

The fixture has a built in controller. It gets really fun when you start using the Vlink wireless USB stick to play with it wireless. Details on the fixture and software screenshots here: Vertex Illumina

Today was the completion date for the construction, and the site was too busy for us to start playing with rocks, but here's how it looked today after putting it in blind last night.
