For anyone interested, here is my radion graph for my G2 Pro.... I finally got it down after a while to work great with a mixed reef in my 50 cube. Let me know what you guys think

Been a while since I updated this thread... I have made some major changes in the system.... I have changed from Radion back to halide T5, changed salt from Tropic Marin Pro that I have been using for 5 plus years to Aquacraft Marine Enviroment and turned the tank into SPS dominant... Pictures to come later

Great build Duke. Can I ask why the switch in salts? I use TM Pro also. I los my Oregon tort awhile back. Do you ever frag you? I have lots of collector stuff if you want to make trade.

I am always looking to see if there is something better out there for my reef. I am not afraid to try something different as long as I have read up on it enough. The salt was pretty good but towards the end of the bag I started to get algae and cyano in the tank. Not sure if it had something to do with the salt but i ended up going to back to TMP.
