34 Solana

Holy geez, that thing is looking sweet. It has filled in so much since the last time I saw a pic.

Filling in nicely!

Same here Nic!

want that yellow acro up top BAD!

looks like an acro from pics...might be wrong tho

truly amazing. congrats.

wow holy impressive!

WOW - Great tank

That's the most SPS I've ever seen in a tank under 40g..... I LOVE it.

Thanks guys. Glad you like the tank.

jjjo, that yellow acro is in my gallery as "green fire" (under actinics). I have no idea what type of acro it actually is. I bought a frag last year from a local reefer.

possibly one of my fave tanks!

Awesome tank man. I just broght a 34 gallon Solana. I upgraded from an aquapod 24. What type of lighting are you running and any upgrades that you have done to your tank would be helpful. Looks awesome man....

Thanks octoman!

billgil1, thanks. I am running an ATI powermodule 6 bulb T5 fixture. Ugrades include a deltec MCE 600 skimmer, 2x vortech mp10's for flow, phosban reactor, tunze auto topoff, and a reefkeeper lite controller.

i've been watching the progress, even save the picts. Just stunning!!!! What the hell am i doing wrong? Your corals are on steroids!

RockinSmall, besides keeping the water very clean I noticed a huge increase in growth since i switched from MH to T5's. The powermodule is damn bright and the corals grow very dense under the T5's

Hey sorry just one more question. Did a little resaerch on the lighting you suggested. The dimensions on the top of my tank are 20" wide and the smallest ATI fixture that I can find is a 24". Currently running the Solana pendant 150W fixture that I upgarded with a Phoenix 14k. Thanks in advance....

The ATI fixture is actually 22 1/2" long. The overhang really isn't too noticeable.

Sounds awesome. Their are several models. How many watts is the one that you are using? Promise this is the last question... Bill

I am using the 6x24w powermodule. If I were to do it again I would have bought the sunpower and saved a little cash. They both put out the same amount of light.

Thnaks for all the info....Bill

ive been fighting the t-5's b/c ive been old scool for so long. I am gunna upgrade my 75 to a 150g or 180g, perhaps i will go with t-5's. i imagine the cost is greater than metal halides...
