    Thanks! Very exciting and addicting for sure. I have these guys under power compacts so the color doesn't pop too much, but I have a couple Boostled's on the way. I really want to get a 40b up and running! I hear rumor that petco will be having their sale starting on the 26th of this month....we'll see. Till then I'll just keep some small frags in the 10g.

    Yeah the BoostLEDs will be a night and day difference. Breeder's are definitely a great size. You'll like it muchhh better than the 10. My 40 is my first tank too, but its a good starter size I think. Plus, you'll have alottt more fish options. Although, I still wish I had a giant tank to put some bigger fish in haha. One of these days..

    It's been an exciting week for me and my nano. First I got a few BoostLED's and WOW!! I'm 100% sold on LED's. I also got a few new corals from a nice LFS that I happened to find. What's crazy is my corals look better under the BoostLED's than they did the MH's at the store.

    A few pics.

    Nice build! I recently added two boostLEDS to my 14 gallon biocube so it seems like we are in the same boat there. I love them just as much as you do. Great coloration. I guess time will tell with the growth though. Ive been hearing they arent as good as halides. Awesome looking scape and sweet corals to fill it in. Keep up the good work man!

    Thank you both. To think I told myself I was only going to setup a FOWLR. Now that 29g FOWLR is about to be replaced with a new 40b reef. Corals are just soooo addictive LOL.
