New Coralife 29 Biocube Build

[reid429]

I just started this build and still need a few things this is a new Coralife 29 Biocube. I ordered lights on the same day from rapid led. I went with the solderless dimmable kit with 10 royal Blue, 8 neutral white, 4 UV, 1 red and 1 cyan powered off two meanwell D series drivers and DIY 2 channel dimming kit. I plan to eventually step into Sps as I have had bad luck in te past with it due to swings. I plan to automate an fix it this time. This will be a mixed reef.

The light mix is perfect in person with no spot lighting and a good blend at about a 18k look
