got2envy Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 So minor mis hap with my LED. I was doing a water change and knocked the display thingy in the bucket and didn't notice for like 5 minutes...any ways have it drying out for a few days now and ihop it will work again, f not I will try and get another for it. For now I threw my T5 on there. I guess I will use the velcro next time LOL. I also have another WP10 coming for this tank...because of the rock work I cant seem to get good flow on the far end side and get some diatoms building up. anyways here is a pic with my gangsta T5 PVC light stand Link to comment
gabe3eb Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Looking good! Sorry to hear about the mishap. I have had success with cell phones by putting them in a ziplock full of rice... Might help dry it out? Link to comment
got2envy Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 That's a good idea! Forgot about that trick Thanks Gabe! Link to comment
gena Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 That stinks. I hope you can fix it!!!!! That light is/was so cool. Link to comment
Illuiix Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Mmmm good luck on the light. Was that brain from lawnman? Looks good. Link to comment
got2envy Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 I know I can't believe I didn't hear it fall in. I got the brain a few years back from a nano reef guy here on the forums. I think it was jjjjo or something like that LOL Link to comment
got2envy Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 Been to lazy to fix the light but with the T5's my red slime is gone...must be the lighting spectrum...finally got my other WP10. The seller accidentally sent it to my address in Florida so had to wait for my mom in law to ship it. Tasty waves. Link to comment
JavaJacketOC Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 This is a really cool tank..I love the idea of shallow and long, it allow for islands and all kinds of good stuff even though it's only 12 gallons Link to comment
got2envy Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 Thanks Java! The tank is awesome and it def looks bigger than 12g. Link to comment
ClownTriggerDude Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Looks awesome ! Have you thought of using a mangrove ? The tallness would add a different dimension and look wonderful. Also, a clam or two ! Link to comment
markalot Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Sorry about the light. I'm not totally thrilled with mine but it works well over my 29 along with a very blue / warm white BuildMyLED fixture. Great flow in that video, I've got 2 wp10's as well, awesome pumps. Link to comment
got2envy Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 Yeah def get better colors with the T5's but the LEDs are sleek lol I do have 2 mangroves in there Link to comment
gabe3eb Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Oh wow, didn't realize you had a Talbot's Damsel in there until I saw the video. Those guys are so awesome. I have had a couple in the past and am a big fan of them. How far dialed down are the WP-10s? Link to comment
got2envy Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 Yeah he is cool but a punk azz...he digs every where. I have it on short wave mode turned all the way up Link to comment
Illuiix Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Nice waves! But can you make it slower? Or that's the slowest pulse you can go? Link to comment
got2envy Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 In W1 and S1 with dial turned all the way to the left...looks crazier than it actually is lol I turned it down a bit...but it doesn't seem to make much difference :/ Link to comment
edavis402 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 just read this whole thread. such a cool tank. I love the size and layout. following thread now. Link to comment
got2envy Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 Hello! some changes to the 12g I wasn't happy with the look so I changed the sand and I finally tried the LED again and it worked! the old "put in a bag of rice" worked yay!! I have added some SPS and so far they are doing good under the light. Still run it at 50% blue and 30% white from 12PM to 4PM , blues are on from 8AM to 7PM. I added the other WP10 and am running them W3, S3 dial half way. Thanks again B for the green open brain PIX!! http://s982.photobucket.com/user/luv2fish4fun/media/2014-06-01%2011.13.56_1.jpg.html'> video uploading. Thanks for following! Link to comment
