I love the powder brown. I want one too.

The full tank, still with just the one halide on...I still have a whole open side to work with on the left

LOTS more room...mostly for LPS I think.

Got some good shots of the Powder Brown. He certainly isn't shy and seems to like the camera.

Love this shot of his tail

Lurking in the shadows....

King of the tank

Those reflectors seem to work really well!! There is hardly and extra light spill outside of the tank.

Yeah you know I am very pleased with them.

It was important to me to get little to no light spilling into the room. There is only a little that spills out from the sides. Nothing bad at all though.

They are very much like spotlights. Although I still think the coverage is great. Some of the other similar reflectors do have a wider coverage for sure but the penetration of the Lumenbrights is great. My tank is only 22" tall but I would imagine on a 30" tall tank, these things would still rock.

For most people, 3 reflectors would be needed for a tank this size but I prefer the look of them fading away at the edges. I am filling those ends of the tank with all kind of softies. So far I have quite a few leathers and mushrooms over there.

Really want this to be a very, very diverse and mixed reef.

I wanted the kole too! But I guess you pm'd first. Tanks looks great, and glad to see them all getting along. Is the tusk fitting in now?

Yeah the tusk is fine now. He gets chased once in a while by the Hippo but nothing bad. The tusk tail is a little nipped up still though.

I think I have been lucky so far not go get any real aggression issues.

The one thing I am maybe concerned about is the tank size for the Powder Brown. Hes fine now but if gets big and is still this active, I don't know...
