Pics of my 215 after big reorg

[MikeP]

I took a lot of rock, some fish and a few leather corals out a few weeks back. Things are finally starting to settle in again and thought I'd share a few pics - I decided I had to have another rabbitfish and picked up this nice Lo lagnifica from Aquatek.

I also ditched the black background on the tank and it really brigtened things up.











Tank is now mainly SPS with a few euphyllids in lower left corner and a lot of zoanthids interspersed around the tank.

Sweet, What wattage are your lights? I assume they are 10 K.

Hey; I wanted that RabbitFish. He was nice at AquaTek, even better in your tank!

[RobertG]

Sorry Mike Did'nt notice this was your tank. You had said these are Geissmann 13K 250W. Am I right?

Mike,

There is only one problem with that tank. Its not in my living room!

Thanks for the feedback all.

Robert - They are the 13k Geismans , I had AB 10ks and maybe it was just the combination with the ballast but they had a slight yellowish cast. Since I have an open canopy I needed some bulbs I could run without actinic supplementation - the 13ks are the best I've found - the DE 20k XMs were too blue and low intensity.

My next project is to build a false canopy to keep the light out and I can mount a couple of t5s and a moonlight on and get rid of the pvc frame - will actually hang the pendants fromt he cieling - am also debating getting one more pendant and running 4 over the main tank.

Wicked Sweet Mike, how did you build your rockwork up? Is it just stacked, or is there some kind of framework in there we can't see? Also what kind of rock did you use?
