40 re build

[anthony27]

did you see the hair algie in the new ones. Nope hair algie is gone. Those were old picks any way.

I must say I am very impressed with the ati light. Now I need to get mon leds for the night time the fish just went ape ***** Maby I will get lucky and the hawlk will end up in the sump tonight

Some more up dated pictures with the new ATI light.

Jarret asked me why do the pictures look different from then to now, and I mist have gave away alot of coral. Yes when I bought my rock I got it from a member caad3 and it was about 50 to 60 pounds of rock.


I took out rock which went into MikeNy fuge for his up graded tank and I kept the main pices we thought were the best out of the bunch of clutter tank.

I gave up alot of coral to make this happen and some coral that I even had since day one, but you have to remove to make room and I sucked it up and delt with it.


I also cleaned out the koralie 3 and it was nasty ness in that power head. So I decided to take a picture of the water movement and also you can see the blueplus bulb and the 68k from ge

 

[anthony27]

Well I have the lights on timers and the light cycle is going to go

12 to 2 atinics
2 to 7 main lights
7 to 8 atinics


I have the atinics and the active cooling go on at the same time. I was thinking about putting in more fans on the lights, considering I have the light held up by a make shift capony with 2 blocks of wood.

I was thinking of keeping the wood on the tank and just building around it and adding computer fans. ???

 

[MIKE NY]

Ant...it really looks good..I would leave the actinics on from 12-8 to get more blue with the daylight bulbs..the colors will pop more and you will still have the dawn and dusk effect. Your water temp is fine, if it gets to be a problem you can put a clip fan on the new sump.

 

[anthony27]

Mike I am goin to leave them on with the main lights, the corals are taking very well to the light and to my supprise the lps is doing amazing. I have the fan clip now that I "got" from work. But that is on and I move the light in the sump over like u told me to do and jus go the filter sock

Woooohoooooooo, Loving the new re-build!!!!!

 

[anthony27]

lol thank you awi, it is always a pleasure to recive complements from you. After all you have been there since the begining when I started this

 

[DrHarryLopez]

Anthony i agree with MikeNY. I keep my actinics 12hrs daily, MH 7hrs (8 in the winter). I use small 13W pc lights for my dawn to dusk lighting.

Nice work big guy!

 

[anthony27]

I am thinking that now till 8
I want to do the atinics the blue + from 12 to 2 and then the main from 2 to 7 and then the blue + from 7 to 8
