Thanks for the tip.The tank is 72x24x24.After consulting with Orphek directly,2 units were recommended.I'm going to try and remove the old lights and get the new Atlantik units up and running today.

swapped out my original lights for 2 Orphek Atlantik units. It's been 2 weeks and the corals are loving it and the nuisance algae,not so much

here's an almost night time pic.

Here is an instal pic.I cut a slab of 3/4 plywood to cover the tank and provide a work surface for the light swap.

So when is the up grad to a 8'er or even 10'er

Probably when you do a 14' er. Then I'll take your 300

I seriously have a lot more to learn before then.

Well that will never happen as the wife will not let me get a bigger tank now, this is it for the big tanks.
