Nothing to brag about yet but it's a build in the making.

tmc1313 · 09/21/2012, 02:45 PM

Mine is in process. The rock is in my main DT sump for a few weeks to become colonized with bacteria, but this is how it will look structurally pre-coral.

here's a link to my build thus far:

Here's mine after a week we so. Still cycling! The chromis are coming out and going back to the store next week in change for a true perc clown!

Thanks!

Took me a while cuz I'm a perfectionist haha. Gotta add a little more of that tonga branch and I'm good!

ST1Doppelganger · 09/22/2012, 12:41 AM

Thats some nice rock work on both of those tanks. Im going a bit overkill on my 6 gallon edge light so I can just use it on the bigger one when I decide to upgrade to the bigger edge when I find a good priced larger edge.

gregrocks79 · 09/22/2012, 08:40 AM

Thanks. What light are you using? I've got the AI Nano and I love it!!

ST1Doppelganger · 09/22/2012, 08:52 AM

I did a custom Cree DIY LED set up but have some Luxeon LEDs that are being delivered because I had my non Cree LEDs burn out on the current configuration.

It's going to have 4cree Royal Blue, 6cree XML cool white, 2 Luxeon Royal Blue, 1Luxeon Tristar with a DeepRed/Cyan/CoolBlue and then 2 Luxeon Tristar containing one 5000k white/2Royal Blue.

Should have it together in the next week and will post a pic of it.

My Tank is pretty mature (over 2 years).

Here is an in-progress video I've made of my tank. You'll get a much better idea of what I've done.

Here are a few quick pictures:

My Edge running stock filter and 9 watt Ultrabrite reef Led system. sorry cant get right color with camera and much brighter in person. Any suggestions would be great. This is a great thread

davidadelp · 10/07/2012, 07:20 AM

Those are some great fluvals!! I love the variety in such a small tank! I really like the thought of a true nano but Im not nearly together enough to keep up with the constant water changes they require.

gregrocks79 · 10/07/2012, 08:51 AM

Here are some updated pics of mine. Just slowly adding livestock. CUC is in, perc clown to follow soon!

Nav1 · 10/07/2012, 02:50 PM

Sorry pic didnt show up. 6g fluval edge w/ 9 watt Ultrabrite Leds. Stock filter and 50% water change once a week. cant capture the look in person with my camera, but much brighter in person.

gorey · 10/07/2012, 05:56 PM

Man these edges look great, are they alot of up keep?

Nav1 · 10/07/2012, 06:10 PM

Thanks bud, if you dont add too many fish and dont over feed its easy work. I do 50% water change every 7-10 days, thats it.

thebanker · 11/15/2012, 12:15 PM

Looks good!

thebanker · 11/15/2012, 12:17 PM

amutti - those pics blow me away. Just incredible

ST1Doppelganger · 11/16/2012, 02:16 AM

I agree with banker on amuttis pics looking incredible.

After seeing the carpets of polyps I was tempted to add polyps to my tank but I'm trying to keep mine near pure sps.
