what did you do with the infinity light fixture ?? Up for sale maybe ??

 

[MedRed]

I still have it. Not sure if I want to sell it.

 

[Hugo’s_reef]

ahhhhh i know exactly how you feel ... i have the infinity fixture but 48" and i want to downsize to a 60 gallon cube so i need the 24"...i like the fixture so much i dont want to sell my 48" either just in case later when i get my own place i want to go bigger i have it ready haha... You sure you dont want to sell it haha ???

 

[MedRed]

I don't know, man. I'm in love with it. It's the perfect light.

 

[phish96]

daaamn! that's a lot of light changes. You got issues bro haha

 

[MedRed]

daaamn! that's a lot of light changes. You got issues bro haha

All to end up using fixtures I owned before I even started this tank. All that money down the drain. *sigh.

 

[MedRed]

So here's a FTS with the fixture visible. They're a little crooked as I'd been knocking around in the tank the past few days and forgot to straighten them up before the pic.

Regular FTS: I'm still moving some of the SPS around as I decide where I want them permanently. The mystic sunset on the frag plug is temporary until I can find it a home

And here are the PAR values.
Red=Left rear spire 150w Radium M80 Magnetic Ballast
Yellow=Middle front spire 150w Radium Electronic Ballast
Green=Right rear spire 250w Phoenix Electronic Ballast.

that middle spiral has been invaded by zoos, so cool!

 

[MedRed]

you should see the other side. It's a solid wall of lunar eclipse.

 

[MedRed]

BTW:
Red=Left rear spire 150w Radium M80 Magnetic Ballast
Yellow=Middle front spire 150w Radium Electronic Ballast
Green=Right rear spire 250w Phoenix Electronic Ballast.

Why do I always want stuff I can't have? I've been up half the night trying to figure out how I can get one of these...

and one of these...

I'd be able to cut down on evaporation and tidy up the sump area better... Plus they look great!

I remember seeing them awhile ago, but now that I'm consolidating equipment, I can deal with a smaller sump footprint that holds the same amount of water.

I don't think you have enough light over your tank..... haha tank is looking good. Glads its recovering well from your previous crash.

 

[TheJedi]

Looks amazing man, really nice. Could use some more cowbell though ound:

I hope mine looks this good!

 

[MedRed]

Thanks jedi and dorky!

 

[Hugo’s_reef]

Well lets just say you do have a fixture laying around that I'm interested in haha ... No joke though that set up looks nice do you know any body that is running it ??

 

[MedRed]

ha ha. It's in my office collecting dust. Do you mean the sump setup? I've seen a handful of europeans with Royal Exclusiv stuff. If I ever go visit the UK again, I'm going to buy and ship back to me. Wait... I have relatives in England. I wonder if I can purchase and ship through them. :scheming:
