2 clowns. One a bit smaller. Maybe they will mate. They don't leave each others side.

Added fans in hood with new heating and cooling controller.
Added the additional light in hood as well.

 

[Lsuhunter]

How are your temps now with the second light and fans?

 

[wonroc]

If the temp goes up a degree, my fans kick on auto. No worries anymore. 77 to 78

I am interested to see how much water you have to top off do to evaporation. In 3 weeks with one light and the hood, I have not had to add any. Granted, I am not running my late all day yet since I do not have any coral.

I have a 5 gallon lowes bucket i fill with rodi ATO. Its a little more than half full. So maybe 2 to 2.5 gallons in 2 weeks. But the fans cooling will create some evap. It took me a little while to custom the hood and get it all set up like this. Changing controllers, cutting the hood. But i think the temp and Ato are very stable now with little maint going forward. I have some corals frim aquasd coming friday. Stay tuned

What are you using to prop the hood up? I could use something like that during maintenance.
