sweet tank bro

show us some pictures of under the stand!

treetopflyn · 10/21/2012, 08:37 AM

Under is still a bit of a mess. I'll post em up once I get it cleaned up some.

MondoBongo · 10/21/2012, 09:26 AM

gorgeous reef!

i really love those "edgeless" tanks. it always seems to me like not having the plastic edging around the tank just makes for a more seamless viewing experience.

i love the monti there too. can't wait till mine gets that big.

Curious George · 10/21/2012, 09:31 AM

Very natural aesthetics. Nice job

CeeGee · 10/21/2012, 10:07 AM

Still not totally cleaned up (obviously) but here are a couple photos of the underside

kga943 · 10/30/2012, 08:46 PM

nice

Steve175 · 10/30/2012, 10:21 PM

Very, very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Pool_shark · 10/31/2012, 04:30 AM

Nice looking rimless there. BTW, an ATO was one of the best upgrades I did to my tank. The daily top-off gets old real quick. An Apex controller was another good upgrade.

Question though: you only have blue LEDs in your lighting system, no whites at all? Probably looks great, but do you get any coral growth with blue only?

What makes you say that? I am running Ai Sol Blues that have White, Blue and Royal Blue LEDs

Pool_shark · 10/31/2012, 01:13 PM

Sorry, I thought it was called blue because it only had blue LEDs in it... So why IS it called the Sol blue if it has white, blue, and royal blue LEDs?

hul kogan · 10/31/2012, 01:47 PM

Looks fantastic, great job! Love the open sand (but I may be partial, haha).
