Brian's ADA 60P (17g) Rimless - Journal

[fish wrangler]

Thanks Brian! Will be following your resultd closely. The PAR from the 30 inch model @ 18 inches should be higher than ~30 right?

If it's anything like their previous PAR charts, then yes there's a small increase. However, I find it interesting that Current/Ecoxotic has the same PAR numbers across the board, regardless of the length of the fixture.

The 24/7 was so intense it literally evaporated all the water!!

Nah.. LOL. It's moving weekend.. It's sad but had to be done. I'll see how much I can salvage the tank or bust a recape.

Hahaha... best review ever!!
So simply wrapping it up.tight in saran will give you time to move it??

Yeah. It keeps it humid in there. I'm moving the tank ahead of time in my car to give it TLC. Then the movers are coming Sunday for the rest of my junk. It's very disruptive.. moving is such a PITA.

I know the feeling, I'm also moving this weekend. Fortunately for me though, I get to break up the aggravation with an auction.

Not too far. About 30 miles. Hectic as heck though. Good luck on the move.

It's actually a lot brighter than I thought. It's a nice fixture

Local aquarium club. There wasn't much there unfortunately, but it was a good time.

There's an auction going on right now with a local fish club i recently joined. They are a lot of fun and some great deals to be had. I am showing restraint by not attending (had a conflict, plans fell through). Besides, they have a big April auction that I understand can run up to 8 hours!
Good luck with the move. Last move i made i sold my big tank, stand and canopy (and fish and plants).

Yeah this was our smallest auction it ran from 11-2, but the other 2 are usually closer to 8 hours. I won't be selling any of my stuff, instead the 100 or so tanks in storage will be getting set up in the basement.

Gosh I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to update this thread. I took a set of videos before I had to tear this puppy down for a move. I finally got around to slapping those videos together. Post-move and the tank really took a nose-dive. Fish and flora survived, but the plants basically melted away to almost nothing. What little survived, I basically had to replant and reset this tank once again. This time I'm growing everything back with the Finnex Planted+ 24/7... I'll try to do a write-up on that soon. Sorry guys.

Here's the video...

Tank looks lovely. Still unrivalled plant health on this forum and no sign of any algae which is rare also
