Tank is a leemar 44”x 22”x16” currently using 1 XR30W g4 pro along with aquatic life hybrid running 2 blue plus, 1 coral plus, 1 actinic. Have 2 xr15 g4 pros coming today. Par is about 400 at the top corals but falls off hard to the sides. Run full triton line, dose nitrate, phosphate, manganese and iodine daily, vanadium once a week. Parameters are kh 7.5-7.8 calcium 430 mag 1300 last I checked nitrate 1 phosphate 0.01 slowly bring both up slowly.
Tank has been set up since Valentine’s Day this year. Have more not pictured I will add down the road. Got a package from Vivid this week that I’m really loving. Looks like all my fts are too big and will not load. Will have to try to resize later.

My favorite right now Vivid Stratosphere

Nice looking corals;)
 
Sump area. Running pretty much all Neptune gear but am extremely not happy with their customer service first and the quality of their product for the price. I will never buy another Neptune thing again and would switch to ghl if I had the money.

Tank currently has a pair of high grade davinci gladiator clowns, a male Randall’s anthias and a royal gramma. I just finished qt of 1 fathead sunburst anthias, 1 central pacific anthias and 5 ignitus anthias. Will be adding them over the next week. Trying to decide what I want to add next. Only for sure is a yellow eye Kole tang but it will be last.
Tank has been pretty much problem free. Only some algae on the back glass. I had bacteria constantly between bio digest and dr Tim’s. Add pods frequently.

Looking great!

Hey I would move that setosa down and to the side and it can get out of control. Just FYI

I have really not had any problems out of my Neptune stuff, my new build is almost 100% Neptune, except for the lights and the Gyre. Please don't take this wrong but you have your controller in a very humid place and I think it might cause you problems later, Good luck When your ready to frag let me know

Ya I know but the tank is in my dining room. I’ve just been wiping things down once a week and leaving one door off the stand. I have a fan just need to cut a hole and hook it up.
 
That last smooth skin looks awesome
 
And this right here is why I say I’m over Neptune products. I added 2 xr15s today. Made sure everything was up to date and set them up all fine. I’m running the xr15s low to slowly acclimate. Well maybe a half hour after I walk by the tank and notice it’s very dim. Some how it swapped my XR30W with the left xr15!!! Flipping junk! Really wish I had to money to sell it all and go ghl like @BoomCorals

On the upside coverage is amazing! Going to be able to grow anything anywhere now. Will slowly bring the xr15s up over the next month or so. Use my seneye to aim for 500-550 par at the top corals.

Really looks good

Thanks. I’m very very happy with the lights themselves.


Here’s one more for the Neptune fanboys since I’m fired up about it right now. I installed one of their optical sensors in my ato to warn me when it’s low and shut off atk. You can see how well that worked.

Sorry for all the Neptune ranting. I’ll get some more acro pics tonight with the new lights :-)
 
Wow I have 3 ATK only one is a normal one, the other two one turns on my RODI system when water gets low, my RODI storage system is in my Garage close to one tank but the other one I has to have a separate FMM for the pump only the low and high optic sensors are on a different module. I have been running one system since they came out last year. I travel a lot and it has not failed on me yet.
 
Got a top down tube from Building An Obsession. It’s a really nice piece and works great.
Red planet getting a whole lot of green
