John's 75 Last picture

Very cool pics! I like how you got up close! The acan on the last pic is my favorite...

 

Got lucky with that one, the mouth area wasn't very visible so I had no idea what it looked like.

I finally figured out how to use the camera correctly. It has a macro and super macro setting. Just need to pic the right one when shooting. I keep the pics at max size and then crop to size.

 

Those corals are looking great 2in10. Keep up the good work!!

 

Thanks, that is my goal.

 

just read through this whole build man im loving the way everything is coming together it really is lookin great :-D hey so how much did those lights run u, u said u used warehouse ones then just upgraded the reflectors?

 

The 6 bulb high bay fixture was about $225 and then another $120 on the reflectors. The original reflectors in the high bay were plenty good but I made a mess of them trying to squeeze them in under the canopy. A good 4 bulb high bay fixture would work for a SPS dominant 75 gallon tank. A 6 bulb unit would be good for up to a 120 gallon SPS dominant tank. Just buy one with a molded reflector.

 

New tank shots

Here are some shots of the tank. Colors are coming around nicely with less light.
