Cadlights Versa 42 Gallon

I love your tank! Pretty much sold me on the cadlights since I can get one right now for a steal. How do you feel the quality is since yours has been set up for awhile now?

Thank you! I'm still loving it. The only thing i would change is the Sump. Just not in love with it. But other than that i love the tank! It has held up great.
 
Hi! First post

I started a 32 Biocube back in beginning of November, which I quickly became addicted to...within a week I upgraded the light canopy to Steve’s LED’s, added an ATO/AWC, Protein Skimmer, all kinds of things. Apparently, its never enough in this hobby...I wanted a bigger tank. Turns out I have to relocate for a new job about an hour away - so much to my dismay, I was shocked at how much LFS charges to move a tank. Forget that, not happening...almost $800.

Which takes me to today-just placed an order for the Cadlights Versa 42G, which was a ridiculous price on Amazon...especially since they are upgrading it to the Versa II which also includes a glass ATO tank that fits next to the sump, 300W heater, Sock holder, etc...at no extra charge and 50% off what Cadlights has it for on their website. Ill be selling my Biocube setup shortly after we move in Feb 1. How do you like the setup, a year and a half in?

I would like to ask you how you liked the 2 AI Prime’s (were they the HD?), as this is what I was considering, but I am back and forth between 2 AI Prime HD or 1 Hydra 26 HD...you never mentioned why you changed to the new light. My wife already wants to kill me for ordering a new setup, so might as well ride the wave and get what I need now while she’s still mad lol.

I have an Alvepora and Frogspawn that are both really doing well under Steves LED’s, but they’re not full spectrum - so I am imagining great growth under an AI or two, all being transferred to the new Versa setup. Thoughts?

Love your setup, btw...the sticks are awesome.
