    Figured since I found my camera I would share pictures right? Sharing is caring :)

    Anyway here are my tank pictures, I plan on moving away from a lot of my LPS and other softies in my tank and going to a very dominant SPS Tank.

    I will update the thread periodically with pics of new additions as I get them.

    Calcium Reactor is inbound tomorrow and will show a complete setup of my Sump and everything else I have going on down there.

    Light setup is a custom LED build.

    Enjoy!

    Nice setup! What are you running for LEDs? Are you getting good growth and coloration in your sps under them?

    I am using Rapid LEDS Cree LEDs. Mix of Bright white, neutral white, and Royal Blue if memory serves me correctly.

    Yes I am very pleased with my sps growth and coloration but, on certain corals I am a bit skeptical. My red/orange cap isn't liking them too much but it could be placement. Still deciding on that one.

    I will I plan on ordering some more SPS coral this coming weekend as I have a friend providing a new home for my other corals. Hopefully I can get more LR in before then so I can rework my scape.

    Nice tank. i like the black sand. Are your rocks up against the black glass or are they free standing?
