Rimless 75g reef build. From the ground up!

How are those lights working out for you I'm thinking of adding these to my build. Just hoping for your review since you've had them running awhile.
Hey! Sorry for the late reply. I really enjoy the lights. I like that you can adjust the colors how you wish and set it up on a timer to not only come on and off at certain hours but you can set it up to start off dim and gradually get brighter and more color throughout the day to get a more natural sunrise, mid day, sunset look. Very neet lights and great for the money.
 
It's been a while since I've posted any updates. Embarrassed from such an epic algae bloom this cycling has taking a lot longer than normal. I'll blame it on Fedex since my overnight shipping for my live rock took 4 days only because I went to the distribution center to pick it up! Anyway! This is where I am today. I have 6 turbo snails, 1 tiger conch and a Molly miller Blenny. Everyone is doing well!

Is that a wave point led light in your sump. How does is do growing the chaeto. I ordered the same thing and noticed it didn't look like it fit on the trigger sump. Reason I ask our build is almost identical.

Yes it is! You're right it doesn't fit in the trigger sump. I ended up screwing the light into the back of the stand. Easy fix. Good light though. I'll take a look at your build!
 
I noticed it looked as thought you had it screwed to the back I guess I'll be doing the same thing lol. I haven't started my build thread yet but I'm about too. We have a lot of the same toys[emoji6]

Come on brahh!! Lol start posting them photos. Let's see the greatness
 
Don't know if I'd consider it greatness lol but I built my stand it was a real fun project. I'll get them up real soon.
 
Greatness is anyone with a passion for this hobby man. Looking forward to seeing them
Any new updates on your tank? Has the hair algae started to subside. I also have a question we have the same skimmer and sump. I noticed yours is all the way down on the bottom how's it working for you that deep. I started mine up for the first time yesterday and can't get it adjusted just overflows. I'm assuming it's because it needs to break in?

Hey catchemall! It took my skimmer about 2 weeks to break in. I just removed the bottom cork piece and let her go. I like the skimmer on the bottom. I actually cut the grey tube in half that way the exit water flow went into the refugium and gave some current to my macro algae. It's working well for me. Does a great job! How's your build going?

And the hair algae is about 99% gone. Scrubbed the rock in some ro water 3 weeks ago and put in 6 turbo snails and a tiger conch. Gonna look into 2 more tiger conchs and I think I'll be good to go.
