This is a test

Very nice. I'm a big fan of everything you have in there. Wish I could afford halides for my 90.

 

New tank doing well

YEP, LOL. Now I'm going to try and not overfeed and keep things stable. I forgot to mention I also added a moon light by buying one that's on a flexible arm. I mounted it on the pole attached to my metal halide by wrapping a black twisty-tie around the base, then adding a plastic tie like you might put around a bunch of cables. It's very secure and I could point it at an angle so it shines on the water without being obscured by the pendant. Here's how it looks at night. This was before I added more rock and the livestock.

 

My lighting

I was very lucky to get an exceptional deal on the whole package. My LFS had their display model up for sale and the glass top had gotten broken. So it was priced about $200 cheaper then what it's typically advertised for at various websites. I was actually a little afraid of the lighting because I've always used PCs in the past and planned on only soft corals. I was afraid the lighting would be too strong. :-/ I'm keeping the mushrooms fairly low so we'll see how they do.
