Progression of my 90 Bowfront

My tank is technically about 85 gallons. The dimensions are 48"x12"x27". The bow goes to 18" at the furthest point. But most people refer to them as a 90 Bow.

Lighting has some to do with it. If you dont run quality bulbs, your corals are not going to look as good. But really its more about water parameters.

I run a 6 bulb T5 fixture with ATI and Geissmen bulbs only. They are the best available in my opinion. I also run a Current True Lumen Blue LED strip for extra pop/color.

 

Nice nice tank, the bow adds the depth needed to create a nice scape IMO. I understand water parameters in corals looking good and growing, but didnt think it would do much to the color. Im thinking about changing my bulbs only have a dual bulb unit running an aquaticlife 10k and aquaticlife blue bulb that came with Blue+ and adding one of the new marineland submersible LED actinic accent strips

 

Side shots are great, especially since you don't always view your tank that way. Awesome growth, there!

 

I have an aquatilife fixture, and their stock bulbs pale in comparison to ATI or Geissmen. I mean as soon as you add them, you will see a huge difference in how your corals and tank look overall.

If you have a dual fixture I would get an ATI Coral plus and a Blue plus. You will have great PAR and good color.

 

Somebody found a new place to wiggle!

 

Nice! Hopefully my tank will look like that some day.

 

Thanks! Just stay it, and read read read. And test test test
