Sweet thanks wouldnt imagine that small drop in temp 0.6' would cause to much of an issue.

2000w heater just wondering what make/model it is?

Cheers

Titanium "Weinuo" 2000w
Very solid unit

They make a 3000w unit also but i only had 2 x 15a outlets to run everything so couldn't afford to tie up one of the with a single heater plus id rather have 1 x 2000w + a few smaller ones as backup than to have all my eggs in one basket with one heater.

Finally got around to building a shelf to better mount the Fuge light.
Next to build a reflector for it and keep the "spilll" light off everything else.
150w of FUGE LED growth goodness.

Getting there. Lots of soft coral in 1/3rd of the tank filling in the otherwise blank areas where I have not had the time (or money) yet to get the LPS I desire. Still i guess that's the drawback of a tank that only 90 days old. More patience needed.

Predator Tank is coming along. The TV does not do the tank justice. Makes the 10 foot long tank look small. (TV is 84")

Main tank, with most cables cleared up off the tank now.

And this is why you should clean your power heads MORE often than 3 monthly.
That's from 1 Maxspect Gyre after 3 months.
