    Unfortunately, I had to tear down my 75 and sell most of my coral for a few months. I had to have a tank though. I was given a 14G biocube and decided to fiddle around with that until i was able to set up my 60G cube in August.

    It is a pretty simply set up with no controllers, ATOs, dosing pumps, or anything that could be considered a gadget. I miss my gadgets. However, i did decide to install an LED retrofit kit from rapid led to replace the POS PC lighting the tank comes with. I purchased the plug-n-play kit and I really don't think it was to plug-n-play.

    Looks good, how are you liking the red leds? Do you have the red and white on the same driver then?
