Snookman, lookin' good! Here's my question: How are you gonna put both the T5s and the 38's over the tank?

Thanks for the compliment!!!

I built a canopy out of cedar, screwed 2x4's to my stand then screwed the canopy to the 2x4's if that makes sense lol. I used light bulb sockets for the par bulbs. The t5's are hello lights retrofit kit.

Love the dimensions and the scape. Very cool. I really wish I could find that tank around here, I would definitely combine my 20L and 40B if I found that tank.

Been a while...the tank has been doing great. Last weekend I picked up an anthias and a fire shrimp. Today I got some really nice pieces...a chalice frag, weird bi color frogspawn, Xmas favia, acro frag, a moon coral? and some zoos.

 

I am starting to see the rock purpling up finally lol. Thanks for looking, sorry for the crappy cell phone pics.

Looks great! I could be wrong but I may have seen favia sold under the name moon coral?

It does look like a favia lol.

Anthers? You mean anthias? What kind is it, looks kinda like a Bartlett's.

Yea it's a Bartletts, the damn iPad "corrects" so many reef related words lol.
