Everything is actually one structure I made. It's all drilled in the center and strung together with polyethylene, and epoxied for extra stability. It took a really long time to do, but I love the outcome. And thanks!!!!
Haven't posted in forever... As a matter of fact I haven't been on forever. Between then and now I went through a tank crash (long story), but good recovery. Here's a full tank shot just before the crash. The nem died in the crash, and I lost a few heads on the hammers. All is well that ends...
The arch is going to be the best part!!! The top is going to be different acropora following the color wheel to expose colors that don't pop as much look amazing. Then my lfs is holding an orange, foot long montipora that plates out half a foot and I'm going to glue it to the arch so it makes...
T5s are in. Lol this build is so slow nobody is following or cares at all. Anyways, I put in a 20k color temp 30 inch build my led fixture. That's on it's way. I'll have two of those (75 degree reflectors) plus these and lighting will be done.
I'll take a picture once the led fixture is up...
So I figured out my lighting. I'm going to get one ecotech radion, and two t5s on each side like this: http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=89618
But I'm not sure how I will hang the t5s. This is the ceiling above it:

Jeez I haven't been on AA in a very long time! Everything is so busy lately. Anyways, today I set up the sump for my cube. My build thread is on here if anybody wants to follow. It's boring now, but I have some great plans.
Finally some actual progress! Setting up the sump filtration and ATS today.
My ATS plans are pretty original and haven't found them elsewhere. It also serves as a refugium behind it.
The salt is formulated to contain these elements. Mixes like Instant Ocean reef Crystals have been studied by the makers to simulate the levels in a reef. Each time you do a water change it replenishes these levels.
That's not very healthy for the tank in ways other than elements for the coral. Not really sure what LPS you have but most aren't that hungry for calcium. Again I recommend not only doing monthly water changes. Maybe bi-monthly. But if you were to test to see if you needed to dose, then dose to...
Yes, it definitely is. What kind if lighting do you have? Also anemones need stable tank parameters. It's recommended to have your tank running for at least 6 months.
