I'm running the exact same light fixture, with exact same bulb combo/order. How high off the water line is your fixture sitting?

Very nice!!  How many fish do you have in that tank?  Just curious because I want to add some more to my tank.

I'm loving all the colors that you have and the coral placement. It looks like a work of art, congrats!

Hi there Keller; hope your tank is going well.  Can you please let me know how many lbs/kg of Marco rocks you used?  How much of your own liverock did you use? 

My tank is going through Dino battles and the rocks/snails and hermits have bloody Vermatid snails/worms growing all over - theres 1000's of these things.  I am thinking of restarting the tank with Marco Key Largo Rocks.  I will need to have it shipped over from the USA to the UK and it will cost a lot of money, but I think it will be worth it.  Having an idea of how much you used may save me a little money, rather than ordering too much.

Our tanks are almost similar shape/size, main difference is that yours tank has an extra 6inches of length.  I am looking to scape my tank very similar to yours. 

Many thanks.

If I remember right, I ordered 25lbs of marco and and used about 20lbs of live rock.  You dont have to use that much live rock to seed the marco, its just what I had at the time.  If If were you I would do all marco and just use a couple small, clean pieces of live rock to seed.

Who is Sahin? Who ships Rock overseas? Sounds like a Nigerian scam Kellerexpress. Don't sell your Marco Rock to someone and cash their $ order and send half of it with the rock to the U.K.... Would make a funny story though.

Hey man I am no scammer. I know Keller from Reefcentral and nanoreef. I've been a reefkeeper for at least 10 years! I am buying rocks from Marcorocks.com to be delivered to the UK because we don't have such rocks I the UK.

Nice:) Out of curiosity does your sun power happen to be 24" or is it the 36"?

Got the Ecotech Radions hung, all I have to say is AWESOME! The ability to adjust them with my laptop is really cool. I'm starting them off at 25% intensity and will ramp up from there.
Used 1/4" aluminum to make a bracket

I used Ecotechs premium hanging kit along with my existing hanging arms.



14k 25% intensity
