    That is the reason I spent the money.

    Everything I have done to my new tank is with the intent to do it right this time. My system will be completely automated shortly. No more swings, no worries about lighting. I did not want a system that was big enough to be drilled is the only variable.

    I invested and I will enjoy it while I can.

    Go big on lights and skimmer the rest will fall into place.

    I've never gotten around to doing a build thread as my photography skills are lacking. Im struggling with chemistry so coral growth hasn't been what I want. I have mostly Acros and Montis.

    Awesome!! Montis are one of my favorite!

    After 2 days of internal battles of insane magnitude, I got the 48" ATI Powermodule Light Fixture, 3x75W LED & 4x54W T5. I better get these flatworms under control!
