You can have all my tools. I give up. There is no way I'll ever top this DIY.

I don't know who the hell talked me into mounting the ballast out of the canopy, but what a pain in the A!!!! You should be shot! ;) JK.

 

I now have 1 set wired, two more to go...

 

The 1" pipe is packed with wires, in-fact I had to move the connections into the pendant because the thicker wire I bought wouldn't fit! 32 wires in all!

Understatement of the year!

LOL!

 

seems like a LOT of light for LPS ?

 

Yeah, well SPS and Clams require it so everything else will have to adjust.

 

Wow.., that is looking great man! That lighting looks like a wiring nightmare tho!

 

Yeah 32 wires, and only 6 different colors is a mind job at best... :wacko:

This needs to be posted on the thread

 

And Calvin said, Let there be light: and there was light.

 

 

And Calvin saw the light, that it was good: and Calvin divided the light from the darkness.

 

 

And Calvin called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day depending on when the timer kicks in.

Apparently I need to keep up to this thread more. 3 page jump since my last look..

 

Very cool stuff, the lights look great, wiring looks like a major PITA but worth it.

 

just had a thought about the couple small spots of bare bottom, maybe a small piece of rubble in those areas would deflect the flow enough to avoid it? Or it might just make the bare spots somewhere else.. Just a thought..
