Micro-Reefs Aquariums Posted February 19 Aqua Illumination Hydra 32 HD with HMS single arm mounting kit arrived. There is a reason you spend good money on a high end light fixture for cold water system. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post

After weighing in three different suppliers, I decided for this build, I will got with: Home (matsucollections.com) My move to use this supplier is to inform all other reefers that purchase a cold water system from me, you will fully be supported by this collector should you want a California Biotope. Stu Wobbe helped me narrow down my decision to move with this choice. I am spending a very good amount of money to make this dream become possible for myself and all others wanting to dive into temperate systems. This tank will showcase all the endless possibilities that come from the Pacific Ocean! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

Yes, I made this build from design to assembling it and then deciding which equipment I will use. As they said in the movie, "Jurassic Park" we spared no expense with this build... 🙂 Quote Share this post Link to post
