135 gal Cube Build Thread - WooHoo!

golfnut1232 · Jan 2, 2014

I'm using a ReefLedLights.com diy fixture. Going off memory it has 12 6500k white, 10 blue, and 14 royal blue. 36 led's total. Fully controllable with the apex. It's lighting the tank pretty well but I'm afraid I'm going to need more light coverage to get rid of some shaded areas on the outside parts of the rock work. The fixture measures 10" wide by 18" long.

Hi fellow Reef2Reef ers! I apologize I've been terrible about updates. It's been over a year since my first post after setting up my 135 gal cube. On the other hand, it's kind of cool to see the change a little over a year can make.:bigsmile: Anyways, here's a couple of tank shots. Iphone 5 pics by the way, so not great. Thanks for looking!

Nice update . Great to see this tank is still up and running . We'll thought out sump with a detritus section , overflow into a 7 inch sock and easy access to skimmer . Only a few sump builders are doing a few of said items now . Love it !
