Gettin' Low - IHaveCrabs Shallow Reef Tank!

Finally done with the acrylic and epoxy. This thing is solid now.

Working on cycling the rock. Seeded it with a piece of LR from my main tanks sump.

New tank up and mostly full. Still need to finalize the plunking between the two systems.

System is plumbed together. Love the bean animal style overflow setup.

Parameters are all in order and had to dose before I started moving water between systems as my salt mixed up at 6.7 Alk.. Not sure what was up with that (Salinity Salt).

Awesome tank man. Love that big colony of zoas. Is that a 6 bulb ati and if so what intensity and bulb selection are you running?

Over the shallow tank it is a very old and decrepit Current USA 6x54w. I'm running from front to back...

Actinic
Blue+
Purple+

E5 Blue Pop
Coral+

[MENTION=454]maidia[/MENTION] the number four one above was the one we were trying to figure out. It is a pinkish color with orange tips unless they are growing and then they are teal.. crazy colors.
