This is on cloudy setting.



Reef is finally starting to come along. All the Pukani has a nice green glow.

Hey Doug,

light looks good. Any chance you wanna send a shot of what you used to hang it up? looks like brackets that attach to back of stand? curious to see what ya got since many are looking for ways to hang them other then from the ceiling.

I will do Nick. Forgot to take one for Grizz. They are custom made hanger racks from him. Great work and strong like oz. I could hang on them.

I still have to drill for an eyebolt or whatever. I wrapped a couple cables from my other leds for now and have my 2080 clipped to that until I get ambitious.

My sump is working great and the Lifereef skimmer is churning out nasty stinking crud.

Still have to add another MP 40 and my "gold" Apex package when it arrives. I guess apparently I bought that because I have to tend to my ego..

Seems like a good idea Doug. If our lovely frinds at Apex would decide to make some conductivity probes one of these days i bet the gold packages will fly out the door. Just consider yourself lucky you didn't decide to try out a reefangel like i decided to do. It has arrived. But my simple mind is having a hard time getting anything going other then a temp and ph reading.

Should be out your way soon. Really wanna see all this goodness in person. Very curious about that skimmer and sump of yours.

Ha Ha. I just looked up after reading and seen it. Never noticed it until now. DOH !!

I left them where they were from the two separate fixtures, so thats my excuse. I thought my fixture looked slanted. Or perhaps is slid down a bit if the set screw is not tight.

Oh well, they have to come out for drilling anywho.
