Not really but I should have put it in my LED build thread. Simply put from left to right, black divers are for reds & greens, small silver drivers are for the high noon white's, first 2 large silver drivers are for the blues & last 2 large silver drivers are for the cool whites. Each row of LED's are controlled by the EVG boards, 2 rows of LED's per board all controlled by my Profilux 3ex controller.

Looks great Greg! Must feel nice to finally have them all transferred over.

I wish I have room for a tank like yours. Once the tank gets filled with all your favorite corals and fish this tank will look awesome!

Wish I had the space, time, energy & $$ to upgrade mine to a 300g display but that's just not in the works.

Looking forward for updates in the future.

Thanks Anthony, it doesn't cost as much it seem if you spread it over a couple yrs to build like I did. As for the "PATIENCE" thing, I have none and have a few things on the way for the tank today.

Its really looks great now that all my fish are in, even the engineer goby that usually hides all the time is out and swimming.

So now I have the 165 dismantled I was able to get the chiller all cleaned up. Built the manifold off the middle pump on the right end of the sump to feed the chiller & 3 reactors. I don't like the look of the vinyl hose but it will have to do for now until I get something better figured out.

Chiller & 2 out of 3 reactors running, GFO & Carbon.
