My tank ACTUALLY became a counter top puddle! post 32

Looks sweet man! Just curious, would one of those fixtures be enough coverage for the tank?

I tried it with one fixture and it does not quite get all the way across.

nice job Rick...the LEDs look sweet, did you try and push them together to resemble one fixture?

I thought about that but the power plugs are on the sides and the one on the right is on the left side between the fixtures

ahh dude, those fixtures would have worked perfect on each end and the filters on the back... maybe?

I tried that first but the fixtures are 14" front to back each and the tank is 24" long so it looked like a steeple lol.

Any updates on the tank?

[Regric25]

Hey Zack! Thanks for asking! I will get a few pictures tonight. It is doing great. Everything is growing in and happy. I have added a baby christmas wrasse to the tank. I had a small breakout of some kind of flatworm. They were tiny and all over my glass. They didnt seem to harm any of my corals. I have not added anything to my tank to xfer them to my water. I got the wrasse and she ate them all up along with all my pods...

I feed my tank 1x a week and the lights are on a dawn to dusk cycle. The heater is set at a constant 78 degrees and it never changes. Coral growth has been slow but I attribute that to lack of water changes and feeding. I do one about 1x a month. I think if I increase feedings and water changes the corals will grow faster.

The bryopsis seems to have melted away all on its own. I didnt have any fish for the longest time and I didnt feed the tank so I think I starved it out.

So here are the photos.

What does this color morph liik like? The retailer told me they were lunar eclipse but I have never seen lunars in this morph. They look like nightmare palys..


Have you ever seen euph do this? It popped off its skeleton and mounted its self on the sandbed. Its been alive in that spot for about 2 weeks.


Here are some of what I think are Electric Umpa Lumpas


Here is something else I got over the weekend.
