Nice tank! Do you notice a big difference compared to your fluorescent light system you had before? Do you like it a lot better now with the LEDs, or its just different?

Thanks for the compliment, I really love this tank mainly because it is highly maintenance free. I have not done a water change in months.
As for the lighting, still too early to make a call on that - but the main reason I switched was half of the lights were inoperable on the stock Odyssea canopy. I tried to fix that, but the wiring was sketchy - very tight area and very rusted.
I like the brilliant shimmer effect on the tank. None of the soft corals are any better or worse off so far but they have only been working for a day. I'll post a follow up after a couple of weeks or so.
