Arce Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 Washington DC with the GF, worked alot on the tank last night but wont get an update till sunday. Can officially say though that i have a real tank again. Went to the natural history smithsonian today, they had a reef tank with a big clam and some sps and lps, was decent but nothing amazing. 3 Quote Link to comment

Arce Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 The 20? Yep. Got a Deep Blue standard 20. Used the same stand from the 29. Going simple. Ill post details later. 4 Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I like it already 2 Quote Link to comment
Arce Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 I like it already Yea im happy with it. Think it should work out pretty well hopefully. Spent a little more than i would like so far, but that's what happens in this hobby The real deciding factor was that i got shocked again, pretty bad this time, from the lights i was using. Going to gut it and see if its worth fixing for the future. 4 Quote Link to comment

Arce Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 I would just rewire the whole thing up. It's pretty simple to do. Yea i may do that. Either way im not going to ever need it for a long time so its just going in storage for now. Don't want to get rid of it since its a good base for a diy build and such. Quote Link to comment

You could still use that over the 20 just with fewer lamps. 1 Quote Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Lol yea each plug runs 2 bulbs. Nah i have DIY leds im running. Well then just slap those in the T5 housing and run two of the lamps along with the LEDs Quote Link to comment
Arce Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 Well then just slap those in the T5 housing and run two of the lamps along with the LEDs Lmaoo yeaa thats overkill. Im not keeping anything that requires high lighting. Just going to fix up the DIY leds to get better color then good to go. 1 Quote Link to comment
