Wow that lei is sick. I didn't know you were hiding such a gem in between your rays.

Wtf, I thought this was a 600 gallon tank. That arowana makes it look like a 180. Lol. That thing is huge!

Wow! I can't even imagine moving that fish.

Thanks guys. She is one hell of an animal. Not fun to move though. The pics do her no justice.

She is settling down and back to business as usual now.

I've had another lei stashed since last summer as well. Right around 13"-14" growing out with some pups.

Here are some pics of the lighting now that there is some stock in here. These are LED bars that connect. I prefer to run two bars front to back to spread light in a pyramid pattern but leave the edges of the tank dark. I think it's a nice effect and it keeps algae to a minimum.

Feed/maintenance lights on: (T5HO algae growing jerks)

Regular tank LED's only. Same fish and angle as above but much nicer/cleaner in my opinion. Another bonus benefit is it is much easier for a cell phone camera to focus with.

Link to lights where you bought them? Radionic is brand? Can you daisy-chain the lights?

Great updates! That aro is gorgeous. I had no idea lei turned out like that. Here I was thinking I wanted a black aro for my pond, you may have changed my mind.

For those quick connect parts on the drip system, did you find those in the plumbing section or sprinkler section? I was there a few months ago looking for parts and line like that for mine but I couldn't manage to find it, had to buy all my stuff from BRS. Would be nice to be able to expand my lines like you've done.
