My 250 - 7 weeks old lots of pics

Beautiful tank!

 

Absolutely gorgeous man, looks like you took a piece of the reef right out of the ocean. Great job on the rock work!

Wow, just saw the plumbing and I am speechless. Insane amount of work, great job and one of the best I have seen!

 

Thanks, im still playing with my lighting to get the color just right. Im also constantly on the hunt for those one of a kind corals.

 

I would check out the Grim Reefer on reef central. He is the guru of T5 lighting. Absolutely right on target. I have a 210g and I use an 8x54 and an 8 x24 butted next to each other. If you want pictures I'll show you. Send me a private message if your interested. Here is one of the Grim Reefer's threads. Endless pages of information. PM him and he will personally help you out. Good luck!

thanks marlinman but i have talked to him already, he recommended trying a few bulbs ans swapping em out for certain ones...they are on their way and will be here tomorrow.

 

As far as your tank goes it's beautiful. You did a similar rockscape to mine. I have around 180 lbs of rock in my tank which is a little less than 1 lb per gal but I can add more if I want to which is highly unlikely. I'm curious as to the dimensions on your tank?

 

60x36x27, think theres about 190lbs of rock in there...i know there are the 1-1.5lb per gallon recommendations but people can get carried away. I put in what i think looks good and leave room for corals cause u never know what a coral u gotta have mite be attached to.

I got my 2 ati blue plus bulbs today, if i have time i will post another pic or two tonite if theres a significant change in color to get opinions.

Just like I thought. The plumbing is amazing. I'll be subscribing to this one for sure.
