10 Days In...
10 days in with the new RedSea Reefer 525XL and I am in love. As someone who is new to saltwater keeping I must say, I have already made some costly mistakes but for me, the best thing that I personally have spent my money on is this tank. It is well worth the money and does not disappoint at all.
I changed the lights on the weekend and I must say that the Hydra 52HD' are magic. Such a massive difference between the Zetlight and this. So sad that I spent all that money on that umit but hey that's what you get when you listen to a salesman! I have put the zelight to good use though and are now sitting on top of my 220g freshwater Frontosa tank.
I'm also loving the rockscape. Plenty of places for fish to hide and heapsof shelves to place my coral on. Another big change from the original set up where the rocks were literally thrown in without thought by the LFS.
Looks like I will also be changing the wavemakers, look too big in the tank so am thinking Maxspect Gyre will be replacing these in the future.
Fortunately my water parameters are still stable after tearing down the old tank and transferring to this tank so everything is doing fine.
Now I must refrain myself from any visits to the LFS for the next few weeks!
