Thank you.. the tank is actually painted white on the underside... do a search tho there is a plastic place that custom cuts the starboard the size you need..

How is that macro algae holding up? …and where did you get it? I am running a scrubber so mine might die out through starvation but I want to give it a try because it looks so good!

Real pretty 120g! Great photos!! Where's your overflow?

Thanks... the overflow is on the left side of the tank.. it's mostly behind the very tall rock...

I have the 7 Edge but I can not get my pictures to come out even with heavy blues . What's your strategy? 😆

GOSKN5 · 03/06/2017, 03:59 PM

First of all the pictures on this thread aren't with heavy blues.. they are with 4 t5 bulbs and some blue LED.. t5 is significantly better than LED for photos...

But have you tried switching to pro mode and changing the white balance? Makes a huge difference

Yeah I run LEDs. I'll try the Pro mode with blue's turned down a bit. Good stuff. Thanks. Amazing tank by the way.

GOSKN5 · 03/07/2017, 06:28 PM

Thanks.. another tip...download an editing program and adjust the warmth or white balance that way... snapseed is my favorite

Okay will do. I kind of played around with the pro mode this morning. My pictures looked better.

JamesFWB · 03/11/2017, 06:55 PM

I really like the White. I wish I could paint my black stand white, but it's a little too late for that. I also like the sandless bottom.

herring_fish · 03/11/2017, 08:24 PM

I am about to stock my tank re-start and I like what you have picked for yours very much!

This may be a big ask but could you please list the pieces that you have and where you got them so I can look them up? You may not know the specific names of them all but could you tell me what you asked for to get them?

Sorry, just saw this post... by pieces you mean corals or fish or equipment or something else?

herring_fish · 03/30/2017, 08:46 AM

I'm talking about corals and algae. Please

GOSKN5 · 03/31/2017, 05:26 PM

Whew... I couldn't even list them all.. there are easily over 100 varieties... any in particular?

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

herring_fish · 03/31/2017, 05:43 PM

Mostly the gorgs.

GOSKN5 · 04/01/2017, 07:00 PM

Most of the gorgs came from KPaquatics absolutely fantastic vendor for them...

Purple plume
Purple feather
Gold feather
Orange spiney
A pink that I can't remember name of

Also you pointed to two birdsnests.. and flame algae and another macro algae...

Sorry can't be more specific..
