And we have agua!!


Little issue with return.. I have biggest Eheim as pump for both tanks. Since this tank is furthest and frag tank right above return... The cube is not getting much return. So either I get bigger return pump... Or use the other smaller Eheim I have separately for this cube

Looks great! I'm also pretty jealous of your nahacky wrasse pair.
Thanks Blake... they are only the beginning to my wrasse madness... They will eventually go into 137 gallon with the flame...then I am on my quest... Golden Rhomboid pair, labouti, lineatus, lennardi, attenuatus, choati (mine disappeared 10 min after I got him.. stupid mystery wrasse), Blue stripe tamarin!!! they will all be mine!!

also, I didn't think when I ordered my lighting.. so this brand new ATI will hopefully be exchanged for a 6 or 8 bulb... if not I need to sell.. which sucks bc I will prob lose on brand new fixture bc I bought it 5/29 and its been 2 months. it sat in box til a couple says ago...

possibly thinking radion or new vega bc this will house mainly sps

So I should be able to exchange the light as long as i can re-package it like new.. (PA is awesome, thanks Jeremy)

So dilemma .. Go 6 bulb? Or get like a radion or new vega? It's gonna be sps dominant. With some Zoas and/or Lps on base. Don't know vega colors specs... Jeremy said I may need 2 Vegas.. Which is $1000 plus hanging, or do 1 radion... And have low par on outskirts... Or 6 bulb sunPower t5 like 425 plus bulbs and changing every couple months/1yr.. I wanted to try and go less power consumption... But don't know... what u guys think? Ps need to be from PA bc of exchange. It's shallow 14 inches but 28x28

So I was unhappy with the way I had this set up... Had it plumbed into my frag tank.... Wasn't getting enough flow and was really annoying me. Broke it down completely and tried to sell!! ;) well I semi tried lol... Now I set it back up... Plumbed seperate. SRO1000sss with water blaster return. Prestige gamma led/t5 combo. All new rock and sand. Looking to make my znp and Lps grow out tanks.. Strictly ULTRA stuff... =)

It's almost done cycling...

Here's sneak peak


Pics are with 2 blue + only
