![]() Looking really good! Just remember that in saltwater, patience will make that tank really work out for you...don't get fish or coral too soon.

![]() How are you going to add the sump? Tank looks like it's not drilled for an overflow?
VeI like your choice of light. Looks good!

![]() I'm going with a hang on the back reeflife overflow, was going to drill when the tank was empty but didn't trust anyone to do it, and I was too nervous to do it myself. I live in the middle of nowhere and tanks are expensive + have to be ordered in... If I had of known that I was going to be doing a reef I would have paid the extra and bought a reef ready tank...Ohwell
![]() I bought some tank monitoring software and have been keeping track of my levels for the past few days.. It seems to be going good. There is a bit of life in there now. Some featherdusters, I seen a crab, and whatever else came in on the rock. I'm feeling alright - I doubt I will never feel "normal" again, but I'm alive and can't complain... ![]() |

![]() Moved some rock around today.
I still don't like the right side as much as the left. Have some more live rock kicking around in there.. ![]() |

![]() Update! New Bulbs!
Gonna take some getting used to.. So blue. I might move the white light to the front. Right now it's in the middle.. One of the new bulbs was defective, so have to wait for the replacement.. BEFORE: ![]() AFTER: ![]() ![]() I am a bit concerned about color washing out. For example, before the new lights I had green algae and all sorts of colors.. Now everything is.. Well.. Blue LOL I have in this order.. Blue+ Blue+ Purple+ Coral+ Blue+ Blue+ Wondering if I should move the purple and coral lights around for a different look... |

![]() Better representation.. Changed the white balance to show a truer color, but still not easy. Those lights do funny things to a camera
