Putting the Cube of Fun Together

The following are pictures of the building process. They have been taken over the course of the past two months. I thought I would share them, as I love to see pictures of other peoples builds/tanks.

Aqua-scaping (I later moved the Tonga branch to the refugium as someone suggested as it did not look right with the other rock)

I should also note that these pictures were taken before I had my Tunze Pumps. Also, I am currently working on plans to raise the lights 12" to 16" inches above the water, anyone have any designs for hanging AI Sol's?

    BTW you can add the pictures as large photos so peeps don't have to click on them to look at them. People like Melev are too lazy to click and look. Tell us about that light fixture.. is it LED?

    I was looking for the option to post large photos, how do you do that?

    The lights are Aqua Illumination Sol Super Blue LED's love them so far. Very adjustable in terms of color.

    Jessy has a great DIY light hanging assembly. Just have to get her to post it for you. Those lights are way too close to the surface and will cook the corals usually.

    I have a couple things in the work for the lights, I would love to see Jessy's DIY hanging assembly. I have kept the light intensity between 35 and 45% since they are so close right now.
