Steve973 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I'm really looking forward to checking it out. It should be here on Friday! I will definitely post my first impressions. Unfortunately, I'm still waiting on my Nuvo 16, which won't ship until 2 june, supposedly. We'll see if it actually ships then. And I'm going to try hard to get my stand finished this weekend, too. When all of this comes together, it's going to be incredible. Well, to me, anyway! Quote Link to comment

On friday you will have a work of art to place on your stand... at least until you get your tank. 1 Quote Link to comment

nismo_sky32 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Nismo me too! Actually two 24" black with cyan accents Nice! Love the color combination. Did you get the lime LED? What are you putting these over? Quote Link to comment
NanoTank1 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Yes! I I see mine! No one else's is that vanilla. Lol! No email yet.... Will this go out next week? I understand the sentiment. Seeing the actual, personalized unit makes you think it must be on its way or very close to it:-) Quote Link to comment
Outofstock Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Nope didn't go lime (didn't read about it til after I ordered anyway) They are going over a 70 gallon cube (30x30x18) Quote Link to comment
DaveFason Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 Getting there guys! Another slew of units are running out the door this weekend. I am attempting to load PAR numbers for the Duo, Mini and 24" Duo today as well. I had something all set but turned out a little funny looking. More to come! -Dave 1 Quote Link to comment
Outofstock Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Fingers crossed mine is one of them! Quote Link to comment
nismo_sky32 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I'm still expecting mine to be another 2-3 weeks out as I placed my order last Thursday. My patience has never been so tested lol 1 Quote Link to comment
SbCaes Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 any news on the bluefish with limes? =))))) 2 Quote Link to comment
DaveFason Posted June 2, 2014 Author Share Posted June 2, 2014 Seven boxes out today and another 7-10 tomorrow. Photos will be loaded tonight along with the LONG over due PAR chart. The next few months will be insanely busy. If for some reason I dont get back to you within the normal 12-24 hours it is because my wife and I had our offer accepted to the house we wanted. Awesome news but as some of you know, a TON of work. We are beyond excited and praying everything works out. Keep your fingers crossed for us. I can also build a new shop! Fun times! I am also working with Chris at Pico and we will be using the budget model Tide for the new 5g tanks. WHOOP! -Dave 3 Quote Link to comment

Dlc27 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Congrats on the house! The most appreciated well wishes/prayers sent my way during home buying moves were always those of smooth and on schedule closings so that's what I always pass along. Good luck! Also where's my light? Lol. Kidding. I know it's worth the wait. 1 Quote Link to comment
DaveFason Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 Few more! Grey/Blue Tide w/ Hanging Kit Black/Teal Mini Tide w/ 14" Gooseneck Black/Black Mini Tide with Moon -Dave Long over due. This was my personal unit. The readings will be a tad higher with others due to my Tide being suspended higher than the normal gooseneck and metal arm mounts. As you can see, this will easily support anything you can put in the tank. After running these I truly believe you could max it out on a 18" cube. The bottom corners would be lower but perfect for mushrooms, yumas, etc. Any questions, PLEASE ask. 1 Quote Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 How high does the goosneck normally put it above the tank? Quote Link to comment
MikeTR Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Nice readings.. glad I ordered mine Quote Link to comment
Outofstock Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 So what you are saying is I can sun bathe under my two 24"s when I get them? 1 Quote Link to comment

DaveFason Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 More PAR! All readings are done on a 30"x18"x15" tank. A few things to note. Regular Duo will light a 30" tank. However the PAR reading on the edges are low. You could grow simple mushrooms, yuma, rics, etc. 24" Duo will easily support a 40-44" ( L ) x 22" ( W ) x 20-22" ( H ) aquarium Units are 90% Blues and 75% whites. This to me is a real world setting that 95% of people would ever max out. Duo Duo 24" -Dave 3 Quote Link to comment
theishkid Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 So Dave for someone like myself looking at a cad lights 34g that is 30" x 16" x 16" would you still go with the 24" after completing all these measurements? Is there some kind of site that shows what par levels corals/clams need? I guess it would mainly be determined by what you want to keep in the tank. Quote Link to comment
theishkid Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I guess after looking around for a minute it would be that a dual would work but I would be limited, where the 24 will work with almost any coral I wanted at almost any spot in the tank. 1 Quote Link to comment
