Have you chosen a light yet?

I haven't, what you running? I'm thinking about a few kessils eventually but I will probably no cheaper until I get it cycled and start stocking

Use a current orbit pro or start with 1 a80 and then add a new one

Right, I planned on doing one the adding to it. Radion just seems like overkill for a 29 gal tank. Lol

What size do you think I should look at an the orbit pro?

I meant for your fuge. Right now I'm using a t5ho sunblaze 4 bulb 24" fixture with 2 ATI Coral plus and 2 ATI blue plus bulbs. Just started adding a few corals like a week ago but everything seems happy. The sunblaze is for growing plants so it's not built for aquariums but it has a good looking reflector that wraps around each bulb and it lights my tank well.

I have no idea what I'm gonna use on the fuge. I will find me a tiny led light somewhere that I will use probably

Looking good so far my man, hopefully I will get mine started soon

 

[Mandrew]

Thanks. Best of luck! You're going with a 10g correct?

Started with a 10 but I had someone give gift me a 29 with a stand so I'm gonna work on getting it cleaned up and reef ready then it will be go time.

I got my sand ordered (Fiji pink), I got the hob fuge coming, already got heaters and live rock on site. So it won't be long and hopefully I will get it doing something.

30L x 12.5W x13H

Get an sb reeflight reefbreeder or black box led from amazon. I found one that can do sps and is controllable for $120

Just one light to cover that width?

I had 1 black box from eBay on my 20g long and as long as you hang it high enough it will cover the 30" easy. I just decided to go to t5 because of the plug and play success with them.

Humm, something to think about for sure.

Nice! You converted your Edge to SW reef. Did you do something special with the lights?

Thanks. I like it! I got the Fluval Edge mod from Ultrabrite, so it retains the original sleek hood look.
