Congrats on the baby!
Tanks looks sick as always man, you have inspired me to start a build similar to this haha. I hope you don't mind. It's pretty cool how your making that one radion work, I would have thought 3 would be needed for a tank that size.

no split yet? must be pretty big eh? have you lost any fishies from it?

Yeah, no split yet. Do they usually split in captivity?
Last year it made its way into a powerhead and almost died so maybe that's why but every since its been doing great and is almost about a foot wide when it's expanded. No fish losses from It.. Yet ha

Thanks buddy.

Haha go right ahead, the more tanks the better.

Yeah I'm pretty pleased with the radion/t5 combo but I think I will probably upgrade to the new pro model at some point to get a little bit more out of the LED

not really sure if Mag split regularly like BTA's but I'm sure they do. I've only read of one split in captivity. also saw another vid where the owner manually split the Mag into 2. either way man. awesome Mag. keep up the good work with it.

Thanks Marv I'm pretty in love with it even tho getting it to stay put was a big issue. If be crazy stoked if it split.

So, man they weren't lying with the picture of the rock anemone I bought. This is right after I put it in the tank and ill say their shipping and livestock were topnotch, some of the best I've seen.

Check It. Why don't more people keep these little guys? I may get some more pending how this one does.. Even tho this one is meant for my sunlit nano I'm working on. Anyway enough blabbing

What are the tension hangars you are using? I'm trying to find something similar.

I got them off of amazon. They are called sunlift hangers by sunlight supply.

They are probably the most handy thing I've ever put on my tank.

Finally programmed my radion and it is amazing. The blues in the morning/dusk make my corals look insane and it seems much brighter now that I have all channels at 100%.
My tank is exposed to direct sunlight from a window for about an hour in the morning when the blues are on so it makes a for a pretty cool affect, this pictures shows what my anemone looks like under the natural-sun/radion-blue lighting.
