My 75 was built and started in April 07. All my corals started as small frags. In September of this year I upgraded to the 180.
By the time I disassembled the 75 I was using 2 X Koralias #4 and 1 X Koralia #3. I'm running 2 X VorTech WP40 on the 180. |

Sorry for the double post, but I forgot to mention the lights. For the 75 I used the Tek Light, 6 X 54 Watts T5s. I'm running 8 X 80 Watts T5s on the 180.

For my 75 I had following bulb combo from front to back:
ATI Blue Plus Giesemann 14k GE6,500 URI 75/25 Giesemann 14k ATI Blue Plus For my 180 I'm using from front to back: ATI Blue Plus ATI Blue Plus ATI Aquablue Spezial GE 6.500 ATI Blue Plus ATI Aquablue Spezial ATI Blue Plus ATI Blue Plus I like the color of the ATI bulbs much more than the Giesemann. As for flow and SPS, whew....I'm only a newbie. I learned that when you start off with frags, and they begin to grow, you have to increase your flow as they grow bigger. So far my 2 VorTech are more than enough. I also have very good flow from my return line. I actually built 2 small spray bars, so that the entire back of the tank is getting flow through them in all different directions. I'm sure as my corals grow I'll have to increase the flow. Will decide what to use when the time comes. Quote:

But over the years has undergone many changes. Currently the tank is illuminated with 4x250w XM 10.000 °K and 8x39w ATI blue plus. The movement is entrusted to 2x6100 + 2x6200 turbelle stream TUNZE |
