Proteus' Shallow reef build

[Proteus]

Well I'm done with the led for now. I've tried to enjoy them for two years and while I was happy at first to join the cool club. While some corals did well others not so much. I just wasn't 100% impressed with the radion. I thought about upgrading to the radion pro as it's the same price as a new halide. But after reading Denny's thread I decided I would take his experience and not follow through. Even though I've seen some nice led tanks. They were never IMO as nice as halides. So I decided to go back
I absolutely hated seeing corals I bought from halide driven tanks loose there luster.
I am going to take some pics of the key corals that didn't do it under led and follow up in a months time with pics from the halide.

I've decided to go with a vertex ballast a luminarc pedant and a geissmann 21k bulb. I may feel the need to add t5 or some led as supplement but that will be determined in due time

I'm looking forward to getting this drop of sunshine above my ocean. And more so to see how the acros react.

Need to modify my hanger though so I hope my day at work is short tomorrow.
