Nano Box Trifecta : Nano Box Personal System

[DaveFason]

I've let the tank sit around with the same water since the start. Water change this weekend and cleaning up from the algae. Corals are reacting great. I have been running the lights on a different light schedule that has had a great response. Due to time I am hang to hold off on the second SW tank. Any who, photos.

Dave where did you get this stand? And what did you use for wood?

[DaveFason]

It was broken down. The frame is now a bar/bookshelf.

I made it. I used a nice ply and stained.

I have one left with a small chip on the back right corner. Just email me.

It looks like you like to mount the lights a little forward of center and angled back slightly. I imagine this reduces shadowing a bit while not blinding viewers.

I learned this from Jake at Reefbuilders. You want the front of your corals to look best so why not give them a bit more light. As well it allows for tank watching without being blinded.

I also suspect it means having the tank at a decent viewing level when sitting or standing means that if you're on the couch it doesn't blind you?

I've always been tempted to add a strip of LEDs angled toward the back to the front my fixture for this reason.

Curious about the Apex controller.

Are you using 1 apex controller for all the tanks?

Or does each tank have its own Apex?

Never used the APEX. Old thread
