AJ_Tsin Posted October 6, 2010 Author Share Posted October 6, 2010 better but still too clunky for my taste-then again I'm a less is more kind of guy Understandable. I am still in the market for a sleek LED light but as every part (except the skimmer and the heater) of this contest tank is DIY'd so far it's kind of cool to keep the trend going for now. Very nice! I like the way it looks, great coverage. And I believe you'll be happy with the T5s overall. It really makes the office a step above. I have never run a system with T5 lights so part of the reason I went with this fixture was so I have a Halide at home and T5 at the office with an ability to move corals back and forth depending on how well they are doing. killer Thanks.

fishbutt Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 looks like a piece of aluminum stock that he bent. then screwed it into the cabinet. very simple effective and clean looking I really like the way the light-hanger looks. Aluminum you say? I've got a 24" sunpod that I'd like to hang with something similar. Any suggestions? Link to comment

I just went to a machine shop asked for brushed aluminum gave them a thickness length width and radius for the bend... I suggest you do the same. It was pretty pricy though. Love it!! Thanks. Diatoms are starting to disappear so I believe the cycle is complete. Link to comment

AJ_Tsin Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 Excuses are like aiptasia....everyone's got one j/k You are right. No excuses! Here we go... a few shots for now, more to come in a few days. I have tons of time over the holidays and tomorrow is Boxing day so I will be hitting up a few reef sales in time for the contest close. Merry Christmas AJ! Can't wait to see some updates. Thanks Animal, looking forward to the finale of this contest. yay for updates!! Here some shots in the meantime. All taken on iPhone 4 with Camera+ App. I used the "Magic Hour" Filter Which adds a teal effect to all of the shots. Photos taken later this week will likely be DSLR and no effects will be used. Enjoy for now and again Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. A maxi mini carpet anenome Side Shot Zoa Frag ...and Finally: Ecotech VorTech MP10 I plan on taking a basic iPhone HD video of the wave motion coming out of this Vortech and several other photos as I add coral over the next few days. I have the MP10 Set on Short Pulse Mode which is creating a full wave and a natural back and forth ocean motion. - A. Link to comment
