nice =)

 

52 watts over 2.5 gallons is 20.8w/gal.

 

That could go for SPS i believe if you would have the water quality. Personally though, I could see lots of zoanthids in there growing crazily.

Heres some updated photo's as of today. I put a few pieces from my 54 in there to see how the aquascaping would be. Once the temp stablizes I will add the rest of it.

 

I also retro'd a tetra tec heater into the ac200. I had an extra one lying around and it gave me a reason to use the rotozip again.

Added a good piece of tonga and rearranged a bit. Also got a coralife digi thermometer, temp steady at 80 and with the +-1.5 its within range. Last step is to work on the photoperiod and get that stable.
