  3. Upgrading to 75g! :)

    After some discussion with my better half, I recently started purchasing components for my next tank!

    The tank will be an Oceanic 75g RR with a yet undetermined size sump/fuge underneath.

    Lighting will be a DIY LED build and will consist of:
    • 30 x CREE XP-E Royal Blue
    • 10 x CREE XP-E Blue
    • 20 x CREE XP-G Neutral White R3
    The lighting will be driven by 6 Thomas Research Products Drivers - 4x 25W for the blues and 2x 38W for the whites.
    Lighting will be dimmable ...
  4. Tank is recovering from the move, new equipment added!

    I took the time this last week to get all the new goodies I recently acquired set up and running on the tank. I'll add some pictures later of the different setups.
    I added a Vortech Battery backup and installed the wireless expansion chip from EcoTech into my MP10es, making it a MP10wES. I mounted the battery backup in the rear of my stand.

    In front of the backup, I mounted a 6x6x4 weatherproof ...
  5. The tank move and a few random photos:

    Update!
    I moved the tank on the 13th. It was only a 10 mile move, but it still took about 4.5 hours once all was said and done.
