Sounds good guys thanks for the input. I have had it up for 4 days now and with the fan and everything on, it fluctuates 1.5 degrees through the whole day which isn't bad at all. I want to run a moon light or something so I cAn see the zoas and stuff even after the halide is out. What would be the best kind to run? All the ones I have found are like 6-10 LEDs and are ment for like 30 gallons... What should I run

Any 1 watt moonlight would work. If you decide to go with a controller, they often sale a moonlight module that is really nice. But also quite expensive and not a necessity.

Hey NanoReef, this sounds like a cool little tank. I would love to see some pics of this system.

for a 6 gallon tank you could probably get away with a single 1 watt moonlight. (about $10-$15) Zoa's look really nice under moon light
