Looking good!
What problems did you have with the metal halide? How do you like the radions? I got a few tester frags for my tank lit under radions and put them on my sandbed (t5s +1 reefbrite xho actinic) and I nearly bleached one of the frags. I moved it off to the side and is doing better but wowzers!

Thanks! Ya man there powerful for sure! Lol, When I had an ai sol I Bleached alot of my sps so I learned my lesson and was prepared to start my radion at a low intensity lol, Right now I'm at 50 percent and everything is doing great I'll slowly bump it up Later if I think I need more light but right now my acros seem like there getting plenty, And I had a problem with a ballast and the halide fixture itself don't know exactly what was wrong but reefbrite was quick to replace them awesome customer service, The reefbrite leds and dimmer were great never had a problem with those it was just the halide havin the problems.

Iv been real busy lately so haven't been able to update everything going on with my setup, My wp25 came in a couple weeks ago and I am so impressed with this pump! These Pumps move so much water it's crazy! I'm a huge ecotech fan and always have been but man I have to admit the Vortech Pumps don't compete with these when it comes to moving water lol, Now I'm just hoping the durability is there.

Nice! I'm getting a 40 next week hopefully. In Travis's 120 it will make the water slosh out of the tank

Did u already order the wp40?i would look into getting two wp25s for your tank it would be perfect imo, These Pumps are no joke and the 40 is really as beast lol I have a friend that has a 40 on his 220 and it makes the 220 wave like crazy.

So I decided to finally try out the skimmer Iv been looking at for quite a while now, It's the Sca 302 and this skimmer is sick! Iv had a few different reef octopus and a ev180 and they never pulled as much skimate as this has in just 3 days, This is the newest model that just came out with the new atman impeller also purchased the bigger skimmer cup and I'm very glad I did lol, I would
have to empty this every 2 days with the stock cup . excuse the cords everywhere I gotta straighten everything up lol.

Full tank shot everything is doing great since moving everything over, Growth has Continued since switching to the radion which is awesome! Just real happy with how things are going with this tank! Still tinkering with stuff under the stand getting everything organized so I'll have pics of the equipment soon!

Yes it does, It's real hard to see but you can kinda see the small tubing folded over and the end is plugged, If it continues to pull this much skimate this quick I might start using that feature lol.
