Pretty good start.

What other equipment do you plan on using in the setup?

Hi Jack,

Thanks for the compliment! I also have a CPR Bac Pac skimmer running off of a maxijet. I was thinking about using 2 sumps or 1 sump w/liverock and another for a refugium. Also, one of the pumps will be going through a SCWD and the other through a 3/4" SS. There should be some random motion in my ocean!

Cheers.

It actually is quite blue. Hopefully my rics and zoas will really color up under these lights.

That colour is unbelievable. I had a SA 10000K bulb that was pee yellow. (I have pictures in "pictures" forum.) Yours appears to be more blue than I would tolerate.

Bob ... it is not so surprising as the majority of the SA 10K bulbs are either white or white/blue ... you only hear a lot of noise about the ones that are not perfect
