    My 210 custom acrylic tank build

    Thanks for the kind words. My sumps are gravity fed with one 1.5" drain going to each sump. Both sumps are also t'd together at the back of the sump so they both keep the same level. The return pump is also t'd to pull from both sumps. I have ball valves on each drain to adjust flow to each sump...

    The cables are not y shaped. They are straight cables with clips on both ends. Each end clips to the fixture on one side. Then the other cable attaches to that one.

    Stark LED Fixtures are available

    I have these on my tank and they have a controller dimmer. Each set of white and blue are on separate plugs and dimmers so you can manually dim them. You should be able to control them with the apex controllers. I am running 3 of these on my 60x24x24 reef. Love them.

    New LEDs

    Nice pics. My same LEDs are performing awesome. I had a couple acros that were lost causes and they now have a dozen or more new stocks and coloring up in the 8 weeks of new LEDs from mh. I am extremely happy with my results.

    That's just from the camera. Can't see it with the naked eye. I have just the blues on right now and man those are intense. It's even on the lower setting. I love the color too. Thanks. My tank is 5ft so with a 6 foot you would need 4.

    My 210 custom acrylic tank build

    Got new LEDs installed and so far I am liking them. I did leave my 4 t-5's installed as there was dead spots in the front and back but that's ok. They dont give off much heat. My main concern was illuminating the 750w of Metal halides. I am only running the LEDs at less than half to get the...
