    Pacific Sun LED problems

    Todd (TJL) is an authority on LED DIY stuff, sadly he no longer posts here. You can find him at the other reef forum. As to the little I know, power supplies can be replaced with generic. If you plugged it's specs into google, you would find dozens of identical units. Perhaps Duane aka Trido can...

    equipment list for first reef tank build

    Have not read the thread, but here is my input for a first setup 40g breeder tank *** Go larger, perhaps a 75 gal. Bigger is more stable and buy as much live rock as can afford 20g long tank for the sump. Could go up to a 30g DIY steel framed stand DIY LED lighting BRS 5 stage plus...

No reason to preheat ATO water. The 55 gal reservoir has a small pump in it that pumps the water up and over...
