Thornchase Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 I am having a shell of a time looking for a cheap light upgrade that wont cost me hundrededs.... Is the stock light really that bad? only use for polys, palys, softies, shrooms, rics, acans, lps low light.... Bah Link to comment
JR! Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 http://www.boostled.com/collections/par30-...with-lamp-clamp just over 100 Link to comment
Thornchase Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 I was drooling over that! but sold out for now ill wait! Link to comment
castiel Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Yeah the stock light won't do that well for very long - maybe to start with you will be fine, for shrooms, softies, palys. What's your budget? Aquastyle kits are cheap, or a BoostLED is only around $70-80 Link to comment
Thornchase Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 I was looking at boost! with the par30 with clamp lamp! Link to comment
castiel Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 From what I know (I don't own one), that would be perfect on this! Link to comment

colormyheart Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 What's happenin' with this tank? Updates? Link to comment
Thornchase Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 What's happenin' with this tank? Updates? http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?...=294675&hl= Here is the deal^^^ but here is a short summary... Ordered the tank on the 13th from jbjnanocube.com... Pretty sure i got screwed on that! so i ordered another one from Dr.fosterandsmith... That tank is on back order!!!!!!!! (but i love fosters so its ok ) so now i have no wait for a while and see if that one tank even comes and if that other gets off back order.... Lets just say I am not a happy camper at this point! I am very impatient with ordering and waiting this long really sucks. This was my last online order. I do not have any debt or credit card so I was giving my Girlfriend cash and she ordered the stuff for me... Never again unless i know its certain and I can actually get what i want at a reasonable time frame for shipping... OR unless i really want it So this build is on hold for the moment and I am not ok with that! LOL Link to comment
Thornchase Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Update! So here is more info on my plan! I am having two picos side by side both with different stocking plans... I will get a 24" fixture to put over them... LED or T5... Most likely LED if i can order from Aquastyle. I will make a diagram in Sketchup now so you all can see my idea! Link to comment
Jacob042426 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 make a single 10 gallon sump for both. Link to comment
