What kind of lights are going on this beast?

We got 8 Radion pro 30s (4 Gen 3, 4 Gen 4), 2 4 bulb 54 watt ATI T5 su powers, 6 Kessil 360 Narrow lens to use as spotlight due to depth and a Neptunes 5 light moonlight simulator! Debating whether to add 2 more Kessils?

I did by the chiller was the reason to not do it. Where it is placed I didn't want a chiller visible. I love halides though

U ever think about sun tubes either?
If I lived in a sunny place all year round I think I would do it.
How's the tank looking now still cloudy?

Still cloudy. I did thing about solatubes and they will be added in the future. Once I redo the roof of my home 2-3 yrs I'm planning on going aluminum and we will be putting some of them in here!

I think it's so smart the most expensive thing in the hobby are lights and if you can use the sun why not. Then with led accents it all looks the same. Plus when reading about it most people have to use defusers to lower the par from the sun. No light to change nothing to go bad unless the sun blows up but if that happens there would be more important things to worry about then a fish tank

Are u going to put doors up to cover the sump?

Are u going to put doors up to cover the sump?

Yes

This is what it will look like. We took the doors down. Still have to put in the Kalk stirrer, ATO, phosphate and carbon reactors and calcium reactors before the doors go back in then the apex and reef link will go on the outside where the electrical outlets are. Then we are making doors to keepmthat concealed as well.

Really nice looking.
Are I scared about it being white? This is a dirty hobby.
And white looks great till it gets dirty.
Truly am still amazed at this tank everytime I see it.

Thy would be great I'm hoping the AC vent blowing directly into the canopy will be sufficient. If not I'll definitely be in touch for the chiller. Know of any dependable titanium heater for a system my size?
