    I made some pretty big changes to the system this week.

    Lighting switched to Kessil A350w

    Copepod factory tank installed below tank

    The best part of the lighting change is that it finally opens up my top for some real pictures. uploadfromtaptalk1396466433693.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1396466449866.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1396466469624.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1396466498328.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1396466513551.jpg

    Honestly, it's basically a faux-refugium. It's just a glass box I had laying around that happens to fit in my stand perfectly. I've got really slow bubbles going in it to keep it low flow and a refugium lamp lights it from the back. I am hoping I can grow some serious pods in it though.

    Now I just need to get some more interesting plants in there.
