Set up and planted 1/3 of my new 180 gallon tank. Lighting is one 16" SB Reef Pro Plant light....165 watts packed into a little box. Silent fans. Runs completely cool. Deep reaching and effective. Light has built in timers and I run a sunrise.....early sun, full sun and sunset type cycle peeking at about 85% of lights capacity. I finally have my algae under somewhat control for now. After initial shock and some algae issues everything is growing like mad!!

The dimmer half of the tank is lit by Green Element 164 watt LED fixture 46" 192 watts.....a very bright light on its own!IMG_1354.JPG light.jpg IMG_1353.JPGtank nov18.jpg IMG_1352.JPG plants nov 18.jpg
