hceiv Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 Hey Tigah, I don't see any filtration? How's that working for ya? I think a skimmer and carbon would help when you eventually get that nitrate spike. Looking good so far, but watch out for those nutrients in the future! Link to comment
Travis Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 It's an LPS tank, they like alittle nurtience Link to comment

I think a skimmer and carbon would help when you eventually get that nitrate spike. Looking good so far, but watch out for those nutrients in the future! I got filtration. 1. small refuge area w/ chaeto (biological and the macro will remove excess nutrients), 2. I do use activated carbon and Poly Filter (chemical filtration), they are both located directly below the drain lines. Only type I don't have really is the mechanical filtration, but that's okay. I might add an Urchin, but I have to double check to see if there is space. But like Travis said, LPS don't mind a little dirty water; in fact they can thrive off of a little excess nutrients. =) Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted October 1, 2005 Author Share Posted October 1, 2005 Set up my lunar lights today. It has a strip of blue led's...and alternating reds. Also programmable so you can have them on in different sequences...even a strobe light mode! Feels like a rave party in my bedroom now. haha. Link to comment

It's a wonder Tigah didn't have a seizure! :x The video's great! I love those lights. I'll have to check out aquatraders and get some for my 120g. Link to comment
Zapatista Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Its a light switch rave party!! Where u at Da Cheat? Link to comment
Zapatista Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 I put my laptop up to my tank and ran your video....My clowfish had a siezure! I put a fan over the new lights and it definitely cooled the air temp quite a bit...If that doesn't keep the temp. down I am going to buy a chiller and knock a hole through the back wall where I can use venting material to re-direct the hot air into the attic..HAHA Link to comment
ImAnanoReefer Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 YAY, a video!!! I luv Tigahs vids!! So, a light that big wouldn't affect the dayling/night lack of light for the coral would it? Other than that I feaking luv it! The music def. adds a touch! hahaha, congrats Tigah!! Link to comment
