+1 That's how I would run it. Im in the process of drilling for a 1" Bean and doing 1" over the rim returns

Drill the tank, upgrade lighting, build my new sump/fuge. All while saving money for a wedding....

Not much cheaper than your own build... 3x 5.2, 10x LDD Drivers, 3x Optics, 2x 5 Driver boards, AND Storm controller= $450 Vs: $300+ S/H, ? customer support, ? dimming, and who knows when it ships...

"each channel individually dimmable" how do you do that with a standard screw-in base?

Check out a BigLots if you have one near you. They have some similar to that at the one near me.

Making me rethink my light selection. Was going to go R/W/B LED grow lighting....

I have a 60Wx18Dx24T, my ideal would 60 or 72W x 24D x 24T. Unless I can do my dream in-wall....120x24x24.....

reefcleaners.org, have pre-set "crews" based on tank size and can help you make a custom CUC if you like. They are a sponsor here, and you usually get more than you order!

Not right now, part of the rebuild plan. I have a 4" hole on each end of the canopy, going to put CPU fans in there hooked up to a temperature switch. Or since I'm adding more T5, once the second pair comes on the fans will come on.

Ebay, picked mine up for less than $30 shipped. It has been running great for just over a year now. Think the brand was osram or something like that (its on the back of the hood and cant read it)

$70 later after a trip to Lowes on Saturday, and have what should be the last of the plumbing parts. Everything except about 1/2 of the return is going to be solid SCH 40. Another question about the drains. I worked on a dry fit setup this weekend for under the stand. Does anyone see an issue...

I used to use Oxyclean, the "free and clear" version on hot, then second run on cold. Kept them in a 5g until it was full of them (7" socks) then washed. Ditched the socks, and not going to use them on my new sump/fuge. Do more harm then good when I work 3-5 days straight and filter socks are...

Last 8 hours of a brutal 96 hour shift....

Small update, still waiting on overflow. They found a problem with it and had to make me a new one. It shipped on Tuesday so hopefully will have it this weekend. Going to order glass for the sump (build sump if they have it on hand), get (and paint) the plumbing, and as long as I get the...

Mine will be going back online with my "rebuild" project.

That's what took me so long to find them. Have to do that too on top of the shrimp, don't know where they came from but they exploded all over my tank...

What size are you using on how thick of a tank? Want one, but trying to decide on what size. I know they say the normal one is good for 1/2", but....

What color(s) is the fuge light?

I just picked up a trio of peppermint shrimp. Others have had good luck with them, I'm going to see if they start making some headway and add more if they do. If not, a Copperband is on my want list, helps that the fianc likes them too.
