It definitely going to happen over a couple weeks for sure.. Tank is coming before most of the other equipment.

I'll definitely keep everyone updated!

Why did you decide to go with Int instead of the ext?

Currently have an EXT, and wife said upgrade only if you hide the pipes…. Also, if there were leaks then it would just leak into the sump. Happy wife happy life

Looking to get everyone’s opinion!

lighting….

On my 100EXT, I’m currently running 2 XR30 G5 Blues, and was thinking about just getting another XR30 G5 used… but contemplating switching and just doing 2 @Kessil A500X.

thoughts?

If you’re happy with the radions I would keep them.
