Cycling And Light Updates
Just thought I'd post a pic of the tank cycling and the progress of my DIY led setup for it. Will be running 4 seperate channels via the typhon controller. Have royal blues, cool blues, 1 uv, 1 red, 1 cyan, warm and cool whites in the mix. Should look good!

completed the lights and mounted a small fan in the hood for ventilation. Looks amazing! Getting some wicked colour from the range of led's and the typhon allows me to dial it in perfectly. Will be setting up at work over the long weekend :)

Short video of the lights running, skipping through an hour at a time so the jumps are a little brutal - but gives an idea. Also yet to dial in exact percentages of each channel, but this is close.

Built a "life support" system for this tank today. It's big-ish, but has power supply, ldd's, temp control/display and led controller all in one!
