DBarsotti's 105g Cube

[DBarsotti]

What t5 kit are you using? Thinking about supplimenting my radion with 4 t5s as well. great looking tank!

I'm using the sunlight supply 24" t-5's all in one fixtures I got from aquacave.




Ok so here's some coral growth pictures so you can see what kind of results this lighting setup is producing..
First pictures were taken on Dec. 10th so about 3 months
I feel I could be getting better colors but time will tell.

Wowsa. Nice growth. Maybe I should strap up my t5s again to help my LEDs ... Hmmm

Not sure if I asked or someone else, but what kind of bulbs are you using? Brand and color? Thanks.

I'm running 2x ATI Coral Plus and 2x Blue plus
The coral plus is a lot more white than I care for but with all the blue LEDs it looks alright. I think next go around I might try all Blue Plus.. We'll see

I could only find it at OSH for some reason. I liked it because I could apply it really thick and it wouldn't be too dark.. Less work

Here's some pictures with my topdown box and iphone5..

I rearranged my rocks and put the anemone up top because it was just taking up way too much valuable real estate.. This new layout offers much more open swimming space and my fish love it.
Anyway, talk is cheap. Here's some photos mmk
