Hahaha. But good diy la.

Anw how is your review on the xr15? Providing enough spread and intensity for your tank? I’m also interested in getting the same led but was wondering if 1 could cover the width of 30inch as mine is 60 x 30 x 24 inches, want to use 4. In a straight row.

I am extremely happy w the lightings. It is at 50% intensity n my corals are happy. I am also able to see some growth in them. 

Coverage is more than enough for my small n shallow tank, at a height of 10” above water.

I did not do any par measurements. Ur tank is so much bigger. I think u may need the XR30w Pro? 

[daveyy]

I didnt wanna get the xr30 as i will be restricted by how many i can set within the span of the rail, if i have 4, i still can shift them around

Thanks for the advice. Guess i will pull the trigger , if shadowing is still a issue on my wide tank, i will get t5 supplements on the sides

Nicely done! Heard from LFS shop the sawing part can be quite daunting. Show some pics of your lagoon? LOL

Some pics of my Lagoon before n after shifting corals to new tank 

[Jeebusai]

Ur lagoon is very nice. I’m sure ur bigger tank will be even nicer. Saw the sun coral. 2 types of GSP right. I have the one on ur left. Taking forever to grow. Seems like the one on the right grows much faster. Ur going to keep 2 tanks?

[MarCal]

Yes. I hv a pico tank housing all my rbta. They are waiting to be upgraded to my Lagoon

Very nice sis. Love the landscape. Not like mine....2 hills.... btw are you still having diatoms issue? Can’t dial my lights too high and too long. They keep coming back 

[MarCal]

Yes. They come and go. Not sure what is wrong. Started dosing Red Sea Nopox. Not sure if right thing to do.

For my case, tank may be new. But some cleaning up, lights off for 1-2 days and less dosing and they are gone. Now my lights are at only 30-50%. Don’t even dare to use any green and red and also very little white light. Until it stabilises. Trying very hard not to dose any thing. Especially no pox. Heard that’s it’s very effective but can be deadly if overdose. Let me know if it works. Lol. 

[MarCal]

Some pics. Not much difference. Added a pair of purple firefish gobies n some zoas. 

Sadly, still fighting algae.  

[Jeebusai]

A lot of diff sis compared to a month ago. Very nice. Maturing well. Doesn’t look like new tank at all. 

[MarCal]

Added 3 x Blue Eye Anthias. Love theirbcolura n body markings. 

Gift fr Friend... an Algae Blenny

I am always scared of adding fish. But a tank without fish like so boring hahah. 

Ya previous owner calls him Mr Ugly. He has a very grouchy face. So grouchy until he looks.

Where to get Flame Hawk at that price? Just saw some costing $100.

Guess too late liao. Usually go during weekends....it"s sooooooooo far 

The $100 ones I saw are quite big ones. So maybe that y cost more.

Last night, decided to transfer my Scopas Tang n Yellow  Coris over fr my Lagoon. 

Scopas Tang ( my gem ) is so hardworking. Clear quite a lot of algae especially those on corals. So tangful to my Gem. 

Wanted to switch off lights for 2 days but looking at how hard my Gem worked, I switched them on before end of 2 days.

Lets see how things go fr here.
