Todd_Sails 125g Reef- New Randon Pics 4/10/14

Thanks Chris,

1)my 125 is about 21" deep
2) Lights are about 8" off the water
3) I've been turning down the whiter channel
I took this pic with
Whiter channel on 37.5%
Bluer Channel up to 100%

I'm thinking I'll need to lower the bluer channel again back to about 80% where I had it before, we'll see.

I had objective Crazy Growth, Sprouts, and colors like I've never had before.

I think you are aware my lights are the
full spectrum/dimmable/no controller LED's

 

Yes I was aware of the lights which is why I asked.. I ended up getting the EVERGROW IT2040 and trying to figure out where I should have mine and what setting(luv your tank) and your setting seem to work real well.

I set channel 1 (Blue) on 80 and channel 2 (White) on 35 when playing with the light. Got to set the custom setting up tomorrow so it scales up then back down at night.

Our tank is only a 30 and about 20" deep and light I put at 11" so will keep you hright in mind. May just have to up the percentages.

EDIT had channel colors backwards.

 

New 2min. DT video in my signature.

I hope the first part doesn't make you sea sick!

 

Nice video, gorgeous tank, corals and fish!

I take it your flame angel does not bother your corals?

 

Thanks for the complinent.

Never, neither does my Coral Beauty A.,

I have heard it's hit or miss though.

And you read sooo much about angels need sponges in their diet?
Well, I have lots of small sponges/hitchhikers- it never touches any of those either!

 

loved the video Todd! Your tank is pretty darn sweet! I think your blue tang is going to love the 180

 

Thanks MIndy

I plan to use the same- or dare I say maybe even slightly less rock in the 180 that I now have in the 125, so there will be over 50% more water/rock ratio.
I'll probably get a few more fish too. I'm not big on having too many fish, but the 10 I have now will still have some room for a few more in the 180.

 

I few pics I thought I'd post:

Great up date Todd. You've really dialed it in. What is the blue Acropora behind the large green one? The Ponape Birdnest is a thing of beauty, I never had success with that coral.

 

Beautiful tank.
