nismo_sky32 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 The other end closest to where the power supply plugs in. That'll make your blues channel one and the rest channel two Link to comment
Lawnman Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 The prongs will make a difference as to which channels you are using. Putting it far left will set it to channel 1 and 2 for programming this stuff is to high tech for me. I would need instructions! Link to comment
kguske2 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Far left in which way? The side where the knob is or no?Furthest from the knob this stuff is to high tech for me. I would need instructions!Dave made a post about how to program it so there's instructions for you Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted September 6, 2014 Author Share Posted September 6, 2014 Ok I think I have it... Link to comment

nismo_sky32 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Did you get the 13up board with limes? I've found that I like a 3:1 blue to white ratio with my light Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted September 7, 2014 Author Share Posted September 7, 2014 Did you get the 13up board with limes? I've found that I like a 3:1 blue to white ratio with my light As far as I know it's the 13 with lime. There are 13... Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Look anything like this? The limes are on opposite corners from the whites. This was only on 8. The limes are bright! Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 All of Dave's boards now contain lime FYI, have for a month or two now. Link to comment

tibbsy07 Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 Working on getting the light just right. Beautiful piece of work, but trying to find the right 14k ish look Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted September 9, 2014 Author Share Posted September 9, 2014 Here are some quick pictures of the light. Front shot with a bit of daylight. Trying for 12-14K. The light is not actually mounted right now - it has the rimless mounting option, and obviously with the rim it won't fit on the tank. For this picture I had it mounted on the AC70, but I felt that the AC70 wouldn't support the light very well and I didn't want it falling into the tank. Link to comment
metrokat Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Wow what a difference!!! Link to comment
Fishstiks Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 So, I looked on MD.com today and it looks like they have the fusion 10s back in stock, so hopefully they are shipping our orders out this week! I called them yesterday, but the girl I spoke to still was not sure when they would be getting them in. :-) Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Here is a picture with the nanobox light actually ON the tank. I took the CC bulb down. I figured out a way to hook the NB to the AC70 so that it would stay and not fall. It's a crappy picture, but you get the idea: This is only temporary as I'm hoping to get the IM 10 soon... So, I looked on MD.com today and it looks like they have the fusion 10s back in stock, so hopefully they are shipping our orders out this week! I called them yesterday, but the girl I spoke to still was not sure when they would be getting them in. :-) Woohoo! I actually spoke with IM yesterday and they said they were absolutely shipping to MD yesterday. Link to comment
Fishstiks Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Yea, so the website is showing back ordered again. I called MD and she said they still have not gotten them in, but IM told them they would be delivered some time next week. So......still waiting. Maybe next week, cross your fingers! :-) but in better news, your nanobox looks great!! Link to comment

Maybe next week, cross your fingers! :-) but in better news, your nanobox looks great!! Thanks! Yeah, MD says they are supposed to get them now (IM confirms they are sent). It's still been a while, though. looks good Thanks On a side note - I'm a little worried about the hammer? The 2 heads look great (maybe getting a third?) but the base of the stalk looks bad. Just below the elbow-like bend in the stalk, right at the base where the epoxy holds it to the rock, it's been "eaten" away? It's only like half there and it looks like something has been chipping away at it. Clearly, the base isn't going to last. How far up can I trim it? I have no idea where the hammer coral's actual living bottom is, as in where is it safe for me to cut the base away? I wish I could get a good picture, but it's around the back and hard to focus a camera on. Link to comment
metrokat Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 so which corals are still there? Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 The punk rocker zoas, the watermelon zoas, the hammer, the blue sympodium, the pulsing xenia, the GSP, the Kenya tree, and the 2 rics. Gone forever: Green Bay Packer zoas Radioactive Dragon Eye zoas Orange yuma Should I use this set up for a QT once I get the IM 10 or make it a macro forest with a mantis? Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 The 5g tank needs to be thrown away. The silicone is compromised. Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 The 5g tank needs to be thrown away. The silicone is compromised. I can buy another cheap tank, silly Link to comment
Mariaface Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I vote quarantine, either for fish or for corals. But I'm paranoid like that. Better yet: Buy two cheap tanks and have one of each! Link to comment

Better yet: Buy two cheap tanks and have one of each! Or I could do QT and THEN turn it into a mantis tank. I won't be doing much QT at all after I get the first couple of fish. I plan on getting all the fish at the same time. Link to comment
