More pics.....let's see...my cheap light is fried already....2 ballast gone....not sure what to do with it other than turn it into a nice shop light for the garage....lol
Running 2 cheap 36" T8 blues for now...tank looks like a bottle of Windex but the rock looks 10x better...the purple really looks good.
Took the rock out and scrubbed it this weekend.....just way too much GHA (green hair algae)...going to starve it a few more weeks to remove all of it I could not get....and let the tank cycle completely....
10g skimmer sump is completed....but my Reef Octo BH100 is a HOB and I cannot get it to skim down there....water is just not deep enough.....so I stuck it back up top and will shop around for a true sump skimmer replacement when I can.....
Tested the sump and it holds all the drop off water when return pump is off (with 2" to spare!)
So finally something went right this week!
Lights are priority.....selling a bunch of stuff on CL to make some cash....looking at 17" LED panels....$150 each....will need 3 of them but might start with 2.....really looking at LED to save money on electric bill....and no replacement bulbs..
