You guys are determined to lead me on the path to those evil sps corals I'm sure, those are some stunning specimens!

 

[daniel]

Haha I never thought I would like to have a aquarium full of sticks and corals that don't move, but they are nice lol

 

[daniel]

Put in my new sump light, designed it for the top tank but not happy with the colour, probably doesn't need the red spectrum
Anyway here is a photo
Will have a photo of the light it makes tomorrow probably
Stand from chim :)

 

[daveH]

bit of a update, I've changed my lighting cycles and alot of the algae has disappeared within a day :D all the red algae that was on the sand has gone, corals starting to colour up a lot more, and growing, zoas and growing nicely to since i put them in, i traded TJReid some peps for a red line cleaner :D the cleaner is sick as :D hopefully get a photo of him cleaning soon haha :D hoping to order a phosphate reactor soonish, what does everything think on media? what should i go with phosban or rowaphos.

What did you change your lighting cycle to?

 

[daniel]

I think to 10 hours I can't remember was at 12 or 14 so it's at about full strength fe 1 or 2 hours maybe its done to 8 now I can't remember

 

[chimaera]

Nice light stand ;)

I ended up doing the same with a PAR30 I got with one red LED, turned everything pink so now it lights my fuge.

 

[daniel]

Hahaha yeh this is a par36 I think or 38 what ever lol
Yeh not happy how one red makes everything pink as fuck :(

 

[chimaera]

Needs a cyan/ turquoise to balance it. Will make an awesome fuge light though :

 

[daniel]

I think it has a uv I think, il upload photo later but I think it might be to strong lol
