Night and Day (literally)

Well after everything failing in my Picotope. I decided to start over. I boiled the rocks, replaced the sand, and upgraded the light, Bigtime!! I wanted the Current Satellite 12" but it was dis-continued. I checked out the Viper 70w MH, but after seeing it in person, decided it was too much light and size. I went with the Coralife 36w PC. I modified the legs to use it with a lid. Here are some pics.







The tank is not getting hot...staying at 78. I put a small fan on the left, just in case.

 

awesome! like I little tanks they are so easy to fill up! and Water changes are so quick to do.. now get a fish and a couple of frags in there.

 

I have lost several fish in here...kinda gun shy..everything from Chromis, to Clown Gobies to Shrimp. Not sure what to try...Frags are coming soon, now that I have good lighting!

 

well no fish, put a crab or blue starfish!

 

Think I am going to coral it up first, and let it age this time first...we shall see. Man this thing is as bright as the t-5's on the 150. I think corals will do well in here now. Even sps.

 

Well done, you should be able to grow anything under the light in that setup, congrats and enjoy

 

Thanks...It has given me new hope...although I never give up!!!
