I really like your coral selections. Tank is going to look amazing as it grows out.

Thanks! I can't wait for it to be filled up.

Thank you. Definitely not a well thought out build. It's been pieced together. It use to have a canopy on it but took it off to hang the ATI.

I love your lighting choice. I have a 6 bulb dimmable ATI I plan on using for my 120 upgrade, but I'll be adding the reefbrite XHO or SB reeflights actinic strips. This will be a fun one to follow. Keep up the good work!

Thanks! I am completely happy with this light setup. Everything has had steady growth since putting it over my tank. Noticeable growth every day.

Looks good. should really be nice when coals grow in! I like your scaping.

@jvb89 What is your Bulb combo. I jus tput a 48in 8x54w over my sps dominated tank. 6 blue+ and 2 purple+, but the acros are growing great. . Trying out different bulbs to see what works better. Your tank is looking awesome!

I'm using all geisemann 4x actinic blue and 4x aquablue coral plus the reefbrite xho's. It covers all the spectrum well and is about 14-16k to my eye.
