Rehypes 39 gallon Signature

[rehype]

So heres my 34 gallon cadlight i broke down a year or so ago

Since i finally moved I decided to do another. I wanted to do this one bigger and better as well as a couple of surprises.So i ordered a 39 gallon from my buddy eddie over at cadlights. So i wait a few days and finally my tank arrives. But to my horror ups did this my tank <_< :angry:

Needless to say i was really pissed but eddie told me not to worry about it he would send another tank. But i thought about it and decided it wasnt worth the risk of ups destroying another perfectly good tank. So i decided to go to Brooklyn and pick the tank up myself. I got a chance to finally meet eddie in person( great guy btw) and picked up my tank(he even helped me get it into my car) hows that for customer service!! And to top it all off eddie refunded me the shipping charges on the tank. So now you have a pretty good idea how awesome cadlight service is.Please dont hesistate to buy a tank from eddie...hes really one of a kind.

So im just about ready to set my tank up but on my way to work i get hit by a tractor trailer(see pics) and separate my shoulder pretty badly.

So a few weeks go by and i just cant take it and even though it hurts like heck i managed to get my tank together. So enough talking heres the tank this time with leds..

Very nice tank. Great job on the aquascape. Now it's time to sit back and heal. Sorry about your car, glad you made it out in one piece and are able to enjoy your tank.

 

[rehype]

Thanks alot Brendan..me too

 

[premilove]

man that looked like a nasty accident. luckily you are ok! tank looks great! what's your opinion about LEDs? stock list for your new tank?

 

[rehype]

Thanks alot premilove. The leds are phenomenal they give you the best of both worlds(hqi/t5) with none of the shortcomings. Ive been nothing but impressed so far. The things ive decided on so far:

Blue spot jawfish
Helfrich firefish
Tailspot blenny
Sunburst Anthias

 

[rehype]

So i finally got around to hanging the leds. I bought a sulight hanging kit and personally think its the best. It sooo easy to adjust the height when you need to mess around inside the tank.So heres some pics with the lights on and off

So my GHl profilux controller came in yesterday along with my doser. I got a wickedly good deal on the entire package which includes the

Profilux II Plus Controller
6 Outlet powerbar
Temp probe
PH probe
3 pump dosing unit


One of the best things about the profilux controller is the ability to utilize the full potential of my aquaillumination led sytem. The standard controller that comes with the led system is very limited.But with the profilux you get to unleash its true potential. Imagine having clouds pass over your reef. What about the occasional rainy days, and lightning storms? You can have it with a Profilux. You also earn the ability to set multiple lighting periods throughout the photoperiod. A major drawback that other lighting systems (and the AI with a standard controller) have is that you can set sunrise and sunset, but the rest of the day your lights shine at 100%. In nature, the light intensity changes throughout the day. My reef gets a nice sunrise, then from sunrise to noon, the lights increase to maximum intensity. Then, just like in nature, the light intensity gradually decreases until sunset. So does my reef. And, with cloud probability, storms, and rainy days. . . everyday is different!

So i picked up my bluespotted jawfish the other day. Ive always wanted one of these guys but didnt want to cover the top of my tank. Well i finally did that and must say hes one of my favorites. They have great personalities. I decided to make a small vid of him

[rehype]

Thanks alot guys.

 

[Awibrandy]

Glad your injury was not as bad as it could have been, and very sorry about your car.
Your tank looks very nice indeed, can't wait to see it mature.

The vid would not play for me.
