Go 1-1/2” drains, of course have unions and you should be fine without having to clean out. And I’m pretty sure a Vectra L2 would get the job done at a fraction of the cost vs the A100 without losing reliability.

I've been thinking about doing something similar. Get the best of both worlds Kessil shimmer and Radions spectrum and output! Great progress and looking good @wazzupmac

I had a XF150 and I agree it did hum a bit. But my XF230, XF280 and XF350 have all be pretty much dead silent

Ecotech shipped the replacement light ground so I threw my XR30 in the middle. I think I’ll keep this setup and throw that XR15 over my IM14 nano when it comes in on Wednesday. Fish Live stock: Ocellaris Pair Randalli Anthias (x2 will soon be x5) Chromis (x6) Spotted Green Mandarin 6 Line...

In my previous peninsula (48x18x24) I had a single xf280 and 2 MP10s on the overflow side and the return ran over the tank and drop in on the far opposite end of the tank to help disturb the current and create turbulence. Edit: forgot that I also had a XF230 ran on a low pulse setup on a timer...

I second that. I’d ditch the fan until it’s necessary at about 80-81

@Mr2KiEu had an onyx Picasso pair available Not sure, but @under_water_ninja might have some too at High Tide Aquatics in Oakland. I know he just got a bunch of cool stuff in

Note to self: avoid drinking tap water in the South Bay lmao 112 TDS over here I believe many areas in the West bay and parts of the east bay (like Oakland and Berkeley) have dedicated water treatment facilities

Tang looks good! And the leopard wrasse is likely eating pods, not algae lol As for the skimmer, I had that same one recently in my Red Sea reefer so you should be good at 8.5”. Depending on how much epoxy you used, you may be correct that residuals are throwing the skimmer off. Let it run in...

Got the frag tank drilled and cleaned. Drilled the tank for 1” returns and a 16” synergy shadow overflow. Though, I’ll be running straight bulkheads with 90 elbows for drains to be cost effective (since this will be a frag tank in the garage lol). But if in the future I want to make it all...

@Matthew Meyer might be able to use this if dimensions fit

Like @Meshmez and @H2OPlayar mentioned, rimless eurobrace. Next tank will be a IM170 I put a lid on to protect the fish from my cat. She doesn’t jump on the tank anymore, so away went the lid. 6 wrasse, no jumpers so far (fingers crossed).

It’s drilled with an over flow @Arvin R just setup another reef for your girls! Lol

Found some time to get this stand up yesterday.

So this light has been going out every other day since I put it up. I have to reset the light, power down and power on via surge outlet switch every time it happens. It’s very annoying! And today alone it shut down 4 times. I also noticed the light on this specific power block turns off as well...

I put together a diy glass sump with 3 sections for about $40 with a free 40 breeder from Craigslist in the past. I recently gave it to a member on here. Be sure to measure the inside panes accurately then subtract 3/32”-1/8” (1/16” gap on each side) for the silicone bead to fill and use your...

+1 on using silicone. Another alternative is to get glass baffles or even buy a used sump in good condition.

It was restored after a few hours. Thanks for the offer Michael! Between yesterdays outage and today I lost a few SPS unfortunately! The way it's been going power outage wise may need to go ahead and buy a generator this point.

Here we go again.:oops:

Yes, that’s correct
