Darren, I keep saying I am going to come and I definitely need to soon. My months of planning are getting close to being put into motion. When are you available?
I'm really thankful for everyones opinions and feed back. Fortunately for me I still have about 3 months before the lights will be needed. I would like to have a decision made my black friday in november since most of the online retailers have sales that weekend. I would definitely say at...
I just did some reading on the kessils and they look nice but only go as deep as 24". i definitely need a fixture that i can adjust the optics on because of my depth.

Funny you mention the phoenix. AI said it would not be good for deep tanks and should go with the sol model. The phoenix is very similar to the radion.

I figured their estimates of 30x30 would be more accurate on a smaller tank. I really do have time to buy my lights since Tge tank probably wont be ready for water until December at Tge earliest. Ill definitely be looking for updates.

All of the information that posted in my original was collected directly from the manufacuters. I sent them the specs of my tank and live stock desires and they responded with what they suggest. Ecotech told me that one radion will cover a 30 x 30 area and will penetrate the 30" with the...
I have two external pumps for sale that I will not be using on my next tank...
* Gen-X PCX-40 External Water Pump...purchased brand new December 2010 and used it for only 7 months. Needed a stronger pump to get the water from my basement to the dt. Its in great shape and a very quiet pump...
Part of my decision to go with LED's was where my tank was going to be located. Originally I was going to do an in wall build and was going to go with MH but now that I am going to do a peninsula style where the light fixtures will be completely enclosed I wanted to take heat into...
I am finding this to be a more difficult decision than the decision to ask my wife to marry me! She has said that I have spent more time researching everything for the tank than I did with thinking about wanting to marry her or looking for the right ring.
My introduction.....
Hello fellow NJ Reefers! I have been lurking around this site for some time and finally decided to join about a month ago. For the last year I have spent most of my time on some of the other sites that are out there but I wanted to get more involved hear because we are all...
I really apprecaite the pro's and con's. I had similar thoughts on all three. Not that price isnt an issue for me as much as I would like to say that, This build is going to be an expensive one since the tank is going to be custom built in my basement by Coast to Coast and I want equipment...
I have two possible rock plans....both would have the rock going down the center of the tank since it will be viewable from 3 sides.
The first would be rock/coral formations at the 2 ends and one in the middle. The middle structure would be the focus and larger than the other two. This would...
I have seen those before and saw them on Feng's tanks at Red Sand. I had purchased a similar fixture from Cad Lights about a year ago and the blue was just way too blue. I would definitely want something that I can control the colors on. I realize it would be a huge savings but just not...
I am very close to starting my upgrade tank. It will be a custom made 60 x 36 x 30 glass tank and my plan is to set it up as a peninula so it will be viewable from 3 sides. The tank will have a full canopy on it so appearance of the units is not a concern to me. Here are the LED systems and...
Thanks Sunny. I am in the planning stages of a 60x36x30 and I orginally decided to go with MH and VHO lighting, I recently made the decision to go with LED. I am trying to figure out how many fixtures I need and I am thinking about doing two rows of three.
