Alex's 125 (Wet lit and 95% done post #3 fts)

Right? Need fish and coral I know!

Zetlight is a Chinese company that builds LEDs primarily for hydroponics. That being said the difference between terrestrial plants and corals is color so a quality fixture with the right LED will do for either.
Originally I was going to tie in a 40b to my other system 9 months as a frag tank and use this on it, then my buddy moved back into town and I got his 125g he never set up.... and was not super diligent in my build schedue so I don't know what this light really does. Tomorrow I'll play with the remote and program it up. Its alot of button pushing but should be easy.... I think.

Thanks, I LOVE it.

My wife wants to build a house. I said I need a 12ft minimum wall with a fish room behind it. 2'x2'x12' tank is my plan.
Teflon tape. AZ says to use PVC joint compound, and thats good advice, but it worked. Not a drip for the rest of the day.

 

I have always used teflon too. Very jealous of your future fish room! One day...

 

Sweet, I found the one place in the us that seems to carry them online but you have to call for pricing/ availability lol. Looks pretty cool tho for sure, and they have an SPS version w/ violet it looks like too (is this what you have?) and a few other colors from the looks of it. Definitely look forward to seeing what it is capable of tho.


If you go inwall, go 30"+ front to back, 2' just isn't enough room IMO... But this is also coming from a 6'5 270 lb guy). I had a 180 inwall and it was a PITA to work on because I gave up a bit because of the wall.... being able to pull it back another 6+ inches would have been ideal

 

Looks great!

Get that bugger cycling.

 

me too

yeah this is it. Zetlight doesnt seem to care much about marketing to NA and their price point is a little high. The spomsor here is a great guy though and after playing with it i might change my tune.

Im not going inwall due to accessibility. Ill have a cutout and a floating hood bot MAY go 30' now that you mention it.... BIG fish like 30" turn arounds.

it is.... FAST

 

See, like you said, you can always so you should go an extra 6" ;D

Congrats on getting it running! Excited to see it filled with wrasses 8)
