Topic: My 2400 Gallon Reef! Posted: January 25 2014 at 12:16am |
Well, I pretend its more than a 24 gallon reef JBJ Nano cube... ![Ermm Ermm](smileys/smiley24.gif) First off, a big thanks to suisoman for letting me use this cube until I can get my other tank going(also, he's got TONS more of these so just hit him up with a PM ![Wink Wink](smileys/smiley2.gif) ).
I've had this tank set up for about 6 months, its now getting to the point that I'm ready to share what it looks like. I'm mostly in to high end zoas and euphyllia. I have the hood taken off and have a cheap Chinese LED fixture over it, for now. The only other thing that isn't stock is that I'm running a Tunze 9002 on it.
Here are a few pics I took today that I really liked: phantom photo bomb!
Thanks for looking, I'll keep this thread updated with pics!
Jake

My Bowers are pretty sad right now, they look like CARs. I got it from Zoanthids.com, who got it from BillyC. Brandon told me that when he got them from Billy they looked better, and that they have morphed under his Metal Halides. He said they'll color back up with a little time. They're in the first and last pictures above.

Thank you! I really don't know much about color temp, I just turn the potentiometers until I like what I see. I do like it a little on the blue side, but nothing crazy. As far as the pics go, I do shoot in RAW so that I can set the white balance. I use the "use grey point" feature and click all over the place until it looks right. Before I learned that everything was just washed out because of the blue.

I got a new light, I love it! Gen3 Radion! I don't know how to customize things with them yet so I'm just using the radiant color template. Its mounted to the wall using a tv mount.

I don't know about it or controlling it with a phone. You just use Ecotech's website to program it. It does have to be plugged into the computer if you don't have their ReefLink.
