my 300gal BareBottom reef tank project

[Bingo]

The aquascaping is awesome, did you make this yourself or buy it like that. I think it looks fantastic and so does the rest of the tank.
Nitro

we made it together with one LFS guy here in UAE.

Very nice setup Bingo,
Question about the lighting.
I see you added the CT lights. Were the Kessils not sufficient for SPS?

Loving it bingo.... looks like you spared no expense....I too have a 300....but I chose to do a 200 gal sump.... I did ran two skimmers because my shark is messy and dirty when it eats.... I chose to have Grim look to my tank for a couple of reasons... my tank has animals that are not reef safe and I want my animals bring the color and activity to the tank... my tank is super aggressive and there are tiffs all the time but no one is biting or swallowing yet....please keep up the awesome build.... and welcome to the 300 club lol...I don't know about you but it keeps me busy as hell...but that is why I got into the hobby anyway

if i use the kesssils i shud have added 2 mor kessils to cover my whole tank. kessils are good growth is there but the visual colors comes to a blue and white only cant play anymore with the corals.
when i add the 3 ctlite the visual colors are good and can adjust 5 channels not like the kessil which has 2 channels.

conclusion: i observe the 3 ctlite + 2 kessils to 3 ctlite and its the same. so i decided to sell my 2 kessils and add 1 more Ctlite. my 1 kessil a360we is at my fragtank in the sump. regardimg kessils you should by them all together cause the new ones doesnt have same intensity/spectrum with the old one. i noticed it when they replaced 1 kessil of mine coz of malfunctions. they gave me a new one and the light spectrum is different from the older 2.

hi sir thank you. you can add some beautiful angels and trigger fish in ur tank. most of the beautiful fishes in the ocean are not reef safe. so you have a variety to choose from.
