Nice set up and great job on the tank. What light you got?

Wow! Great diversity in a small space! Thanks for the video.

Was your sixline ever fighting with your gramma? I have a gramma I really like and would want a six line. But I am not willing to lose my gramma. Let me know!

what type of corals

carlfoich - 9 years ago

Hi there, great reef! I am working on slowly putting together a 20 long tank myself and am currently battling lighting. I see you mentioned cree LED's but I have been unable to find many production lights based on the specs you listed. Did you build the lighting assy yourself or buy it ready made. Thanks so much!

Paul Morales - 11 years ago

Huh... I don't know why it is doing that. Probably because of the song. Sorry about that. It won't let me change it.

Rave33mc - 11 years ago

I'd love to see an update if you have one.

Rave33mc - 11 years ago

Beautiful setup. Just shows how patience and attention to detail pays off big time. Keep it up man!

Paul Morales - 11 years ago

Thanks for the comment, I would get back to weekly water changes first. Phosphates can also be combated with GFO but you need to tackle the root cause first. Do your WCs. Thanks for the comment and watching.

Paul Morales - 11 years ago

Weekly water changes and plenty of Biological filtration. Thanks for watching :)

Janet Diaz - 11 years ago

Wow how you get the water so clear???

Thanks for all the nice comments. The name of the song is "In Reverence" by david tolk

eiplanner - 12 years ago

Exquisite aquarium! You've done awesome work! Kudos to you! Very few people on here will ever have any idea of what those corals cost. It's a crazy expensive hobby but seems well worth it when you see tanks like yours. Hard to put a price on that kind of beauty. As others said on here, absolutely great job filming this video! Thanks for sharing. Can you post the name of the song you used for your video?
