Yeah if you're just filling it and you got 15 gallons in there, it would be wise to drain it seeing how it's possible some of the tank may not be supported completely. Foam underlay really isn't...

Actually it is the point of the thread, to determine how much it matters for tank to be off level. That said I'm also glad you polish glass for living, I'm a professional stress engineer, I design...

Aaahh don't show my wife, if she sees those angels in a reef tank I'm screwed!

An unlevel tank won't break from that alone, that's another issue. If you can run a 2" wave on a tank without concern why would 1/8" off level be a problem?
On that note why is it so hard to...

I think you're current is off to, no way 6 sols running close to full blast are only pulling 0.6amps which is only 70W. 3 400W halides using 12amps sounds right as that's 1400W. The sols should be...

The dosing unit itself isn't vented so there shouldn't be any need to assume it has space requirements for air circulation. I don't think they run very hot, the motors are...

So I wonder how it works with control then, if you mix and match colors will you have independent control of each color or will it depend what string it's on. Hopefully you can also save some money...
