Tank is looking awesome and you picked very good equipment! I recently got the same tank and am picking up my light next week was going to go with the gen 5 xr30, but now that I see you went with the XR15 do you think that the XR15 would be fine for this tank for a mixed reef?

not sure if you have one already but my advice is get a lid of some kind on that tank. i lost a cardnal and a green goby due to something spooked them and they jumped out of my tank. other then that the tank looks amazing.

i use a custom lid from Kraken reef. I highly suggest those over the waterbox put together ones... Link is attached of the lid that will fit your tank.

This lid looks like it’s for the 60.2 prior to the Marine X upgrade where they ditched the back reservoir for a Center overflow.
Below should be for the Marine X

To be honest I have the skimmer working along side with the Klir and the Klir isn't doing much since the water level doesn't get that high. I know it works because I seen it work.

Hi, i have the waterbox marine x.60.2 also. I just started thinking about getting the Klir DI-4 to replace my filter sock. I was out my sock every three days with a garden house and then let it dry. Drop a clean one in and then rotate it next 3rd day. I also put about 5 spoons of BRS carbon is a bag in the bottom of my sock. Change carbon every 6th day. Its not that bad but have considered the Klir DI-4 . First, are the sensors dependable. I do not want any overflow accident due to a sensor not rotating the felt and the water level raising up. Also the controller looks like my Coralife ATO unit. That Coralife push in connectors for the cables get bumping and will not start my ATO fill. Works great as long as i dont accidently touch any wires that might make it loose contact. Have you had any issues with the plug in connections on the controller and the sensor not working ? Either it not working or overflowing? Would you buy it again or stick with the socks that have never had a issue other than having to clean them so ofton. Thanks
