Really dude, weren't you just bashing on the Apex controller and haven't you been bashing on LED's for like five years? So, you essentially just rave about equipment that you're currently running, regardless of if it's inferior or not? Haha! In all seriousness, that looks amazing and the organization of everything is top notch.

Looking top notch. Come on guys Chris does not make enough money with school and assisting to afford all of that snazzy stuff. Just jk

Hmmm, who getting a killer aquarium. Carl coming back, LOL?

This is why you are getting rid of your tank, so that you can play with others peoples stuff without the expense.

the only thing i dont have like this set up is the snazzy stand and lights( i could have the lights just not ready for led). i have 3 vortechs 40's now also lol i just bought another yesterday. i have a rke with all bells and whistles. now i didnt buy all my gear all at once but i save up and plan ahead, upgrade as much as i can. just saying anyone could build a nice tank and not have to skimp or cut corners and diy everything. i go into my hobbies all out or its not fun. emily went all out and epoxied all my coral down inluding the new frags, so now that i look at it, to big a PIA to tear the 150 down(excuse to get a 3rd vortech)........ for now. or i will slowly break them off and sell them lol.

dont worry ray i wasnt twisted over your comment i know it was said in jest.

FYI nope its not carls lol dont think he will ever be back in the hobby

You know I was screwing with you dude. You are doing something right in life and that cool. I wish I saved $$ better, haha.

I was trying to see if I recognized the house pics. Carls last aquarium was pretty nice.

So this tank is LED lit? What are the big white things? I thought they were MH ballasts.

the two matching ones are the power supplies for the radion pro's and the big one above is battery back up for the mp-40's. actually the power supply hasn't changed for the pro i believe at least in size

Holy smokes. I knew what the battery backup was, but those are huge power supplies for LEDs. I know they have quite a few emitters in there, but daaaang. I wonder if the drivers are in there or on the fixtures themselves.

The nem tank? I have not paid much attention, too distracted by livestock when I go in there. :) I would definitely need the step stool. Guess I'm just more surprised at how big they are, so my inquiring mind now wants to know. There is a reason why, I just want to know it.
