Fish_Wiz
Specs are:
125 gal standard oceanic w/custom overflow (by me)
40B custom sump (again, by me)
10 gal top-off tank hooked to an autotopoff.com dual float
30 gal QT (no pics of it yet)
Octopus NW-150 skimmer (under-rated but works)
AC jr on X-10's
2x250 watt hailde's on 20K flux's in LB larges
2x110 watt VHO actinics
2xR2 solutions moonlights
Tunze 6060 and 6045's (don't use the 6045's much in the tank though)

That's all i can think of, any questions please ask away...Wiz wink.gif

Those lights are interesting.

Question: What's your heat source?

I'm unfamiliar with the Tunze. How much flow you got going and running through the sump?

and what are those boxes that all the plugs are plugged into. Is that AC jr x-10's stuff? They look like timers. I was like Holy hell batman, we got timers uh-muck!

Thanks, everyone says that. I just wanted something bright and custom tongue.gif

Tunze is a German brand, they make only some the best equipment known to reefing. Maybe 700GPH going there?

Yep, modified X-10 modules...

That's the best for my fish, most are camera-shy/lighting fast...

A perfect example: biggrin.gif

I'm loving it too. Those Lumen bright larges are gigantic! I can't believe they do such a good job over a six foot tank!
