 At this point I'll chock it up to a learning experience, I honestly think I rushed things a little too quick and it caught up with me. Alot of stress in the tank at that time. I'm working on aquiring frags right now and learning as much as possible to keep them healthy.

While acclimating a couple of fish I decided to play around with my optics. They are currently Carclo wide frosted optics.
I noticed the frags I've placed in the tank seem to like the light when it's about %50 - %60 on the profilux, I didn’t understand why as people are generally running this many LED's at %100 during high noon. The picture below is bad (I know ) but you can get the general idea. The lights are set to %60 blue and %60 white. The left hand side of the picture has the optics taken off of the cool white's and the right side has all of the optics in place.

Added BioPellets to the tank, noticed an immediate reduction in hair algae. I modded the TLF 550 reactor to work well with the pellets. Here's a video.
