Jgraz's march to 200DD

Once filled with coral, it won't matter too much.

Can't wait for the 1 year later and fully stocked. Great looking setup.

What LEDs are you running?

 

[jgraz]

Thank you. Hoping to fill up at the swap in a few weeks and get some stick growing in there.
Right now I'm running Ocean Revive LEDs. I like them but I think I kind of miss T5's. I might have to save a little dough and take a look at the ATI hybrids.

 

[evoIX_Reefer]

Dace runs them and his tank is insane. I want to run a hybrid but not paying 1k for lights right now.

 

[jgraz]

Yeah the price tag is what keeps me away. Might have to save some pennies. For a long time.

You mean 2.3k for a 8bulb 48" with bulbs 2.4k

It's the best thing to invest Into .!


Jgraz nice set up love the ocean revives there a great company to work with.

For out 120g upgrade we are debating on getting a ati led combo the 8 bulb .


Or we are gonna get 2 400w lumen arc pendents and just take out the ati 8bulb we already have on a different tan and use it for the new 120 and just use the MH pendents ON THE shallow reef we have downstairs . Idk witch to go .


Spend aroud 1+k. On the mh fixtures and swap our 8bulb to the 120 or spend the 2.4k and get an amazing fixture fr te 120

 

[jgraz]

Choices choices lol

I may just end up with an ATI 8 bulb only.
Or
My wife wants me to enclose the top eventually. If I do I was also considering some retrofit t5 to the ocean revives. I certainly have the room to add 4 bulbs to these fixtures. So many choices. Plus I have a feeling many more companies are going to be bringing the hybrid fixtures to market soon.

 

[Rob&Gab]

Well if I'm not mistaken guisman already has that led t5 combo

 

[jgraz]

I'll have to look into it. After the swap of course. Can't have anything getting in the way of my corals.

 

[jgraz]

Merry Christmas to me

 

[jgraz]

Did a little work in the basement today.
Hard plumbed in the salt mix tank and also made space for the newly acquired frag tank. And also built a PVC light stand for the frag tank as well. Still waiting for new bulkheads to come in so I didn't get a chance to drill yet. Hopefully this weekend.

 

[jgraz]

Now I need to fill it up

 

[motortrendz]

Looking good man. How did it go?

 

[MjG2000]

It's coming along, good work.

 

[jgraz]

been a long time since I did anything here. so i took some pics today

 

[jgraz]

and just a few more

And a full span

 

[jgraz]

Was a little bored so I took a few pics. Not much has changed here though I pulled a few acans and such out of the frag tank and figured I'd give them a go in the DT. I never really collected these so as far as placement i just put them on the sand. Hopefully that will be fine. Any tips for them would be appreciated.

and a few of the tank as well
