Sorry about the glare, I'll replace those after I can get some shots at night.
It's still a bit of a work in progress, not everything is in it's place yet. Close enough for public consumption though.

First real aquascape And corals setup

Im14abeer · 09/01/2014, 12:27 PM

It's 235, 48" x 30" side panels, the front is a little over 6' around.

myram · 09/01/2014, 02:22 PM

Gotta say it again......that's a monster corner tank!

Misled · 09/01/2014, 03:39 PM

I'll agree with that!!!

E fishn C · 09/01/2014, 04:38 PM

Get the scuba gear. Lets get some bugs!

Im14abeer · 09/02/2014, 03:51 AM

Yeah, my wife took considerable joy in posting pictures of me inside of it to Facebook.

We want to see them!!

LOL

myram · 09/02/2014, 10:06 AM

Anyone know for sure the thickness of the side panels in a 54 corner?

I don't have good access to my back corner to get a good measurement.
I'm thinking it's 3/8" thick glass, but I want to make sure. Might get a MP40 for flow, and need to know if it will fit in my 2.75" of space between the tank and wall.

I have access to my 54 tank. I can post measurments tonight. How do I measure it. Perhaps its best to google manufacture, they must have it.

I googled it, and nothing came up. One person said 5/8", but that is way too thick.
I'm going to look tonight when I get home and see if I can measure, but it's tight in the corner.

Where the 2 side pieces come together in the back, you should see a raw edge on one of them. That will be the best measurement spot.

ArnoVH · 09/02/2014, 02:39 PM

If you mean trigon 190/ 54 gallon corner
Here is the site http://www.juwel-aquarium.de
I thought it was 1.2 cm or 12mm front panel

myram · 09/03/2014, 05:17 AM

Anyone using a Radion over a 54 corner?

Always looking at upgrades, and lighting is on my short list.

I'm not sure a single Radion (gen 2 or 3) would completely cover the area, I would put the 120 lens kit on it for sure. I could mount it about 8-9" off the surface, that's the max inside my canopy.

ArnoVH · 09/03/2014, 08:15 AM

My setup is the following (wil soon be)
9:00 am 1 royal blue+
9:30am 1 20000k
10:00 am 2 royal blue
10:30 am 7 20000k
8:00pm. 7 20000k off
9:30pm. 2 royal blue off
10:00

m 1 20000k off
10:30pm. 1 royal blue off

There are All led 10w

Checked on glass last night. I have a black plastic trim reinforcing my entire tank at all edges except the front bow. What I can see this measures at a 3/16" edge.

myram · 09/03/2014, 11:06 AM

I was able to use a mirror, flashlight, and ruler last night..............3/8" glass.

myram · 09/04/2014, 04:20 PM

I searched this thread, and didn't see anyone actually using a Radion on a corner tank.
I'm tempted by a Gen 2 Pro Radion, I can put the 120 optics on it, and mount it about 8-9" off the water. It will cover the entire tank, and I hear the controller is top notch on it.

It's either that, or I'm thinking about a Reefbreeder Photon 24. But the controller is a lot less refined, with less features.

myram · 09/08/2014, 09:52 AM

Decided on the G2 Radion Pro with the wide angle lens.
Should be here later this week............woohoo, new toys.

MP40 coming after that

myram · 09/16/2014, 02:50 PM

Radion gen 2 Pro is installed and amazing...........what a huge improvement, and the corals seem much happier too.

Now I need to decide on the pump.......MP40 in a corner tank.......anyone doing it?
