nismo_sky32 Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 Messing around with the prime and took some trippy violet only pics. Link to comment
805reef Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Awesome build! How are you liking the prime? Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 So far I'm loving the light. The color isn't quite as good as the nano box I was using before but it's pretty damn close Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 Mounted the tank arm on the wall. Not centered but still covers the entire tank What do you all think? Link to comment
BilabongAthlete Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Looks amazing man what a beautiful tank ! Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 Looks amazing man what a beautiful tank ! Thank you! Thinning out the live rock and switching the cadlights skimmer for my tunze 9001 this weekend. Now that I'm only running 20 total gallons it should work out ok Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 Swapped out the cadlights skimmer for the tunze 9001. Sure, it doesn't look as fancy but it's silent and is already pulling some gunk. Next is to start looking for some harder to find shrooms and zoas Link to comment
ml86743 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 So where did you get this tank...cuzzz I want one. Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 So where did you get this tank...cuzzz I want one. I picked it up from the cadlights website when they first put them up fit sale. I haven't seen them on there since they sold out Link to comment

Been like that for awhile now. The mr aqua 11.4 is pretty close in dimension if you wanted to go that route Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 Metrokat liked one of my posts. This is now officially a thread!!! Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 Traded my clowns for this purple plate with green tentacles and mouth. Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 Next up is a couple more plates. A nice bright green and maybe a funky orange. Maybe a rainbow pectinia after that. Starting to really appreciate all the unique and beautiful corals we have in our oceans Link to comment
thecoralbeauty Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I have a thing for plate corals, and i found a frag of a dead skeleton that was sprouting babies. unfortunately, my emerald crab ate them, so i tossed him, and I'm praying that the one remaining plate baby will bounce back from the massacre. great looking tank! (and cats) Link to comment

thecoralbeauty Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 They're really cool corals. If you ever have one die, leave the skeleton in your tank for at least the next year- it will sprout babies! Link to comment

Thanks for the info. Hopefully I won't have any die on me but I'll leave them in if they do. I have to arrange the rock to allow more space for the others. I want to thin out the scape anyways. I only need a rock for my zoas, mushies and a few small ones for my rfa. I want as much open sand bed as possible Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 New scape. Slowly moving live rock out of the display and into the sump until I'm happy with the outcome. Rearranging rock is stressful! Link to comment
Boradub1 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Tank looks great. I'm definitely gonna drill mine. Now that I now you can drill these low iron tanks. Thanks for the info. Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 Thanks! I love the tank. I'm in the process of thinning out the live rock. Trying for a very minimalistic look but these damn rock nems won't leave their current rock no matter how hard I try. Link to comment
Boradub1 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 This is my 15 gallon cadlight. Try putting a power head right on them. That's how I get them to move. Link to comment
