2. All 4 corner slings connect to the roller in the middle which is controlled up and down by the motor. 3. The light rack has been designed to only move vertically due to limited space. But changing bulb or other maintenance is not so difficult, there is enough room between light rack and edge of the tank.

This LED lighting will be used with one of my frag tank.
I will keep non-photosynthetic corals in this tank. Inspiration is coming from Pieter van Suijlekom's tank. http://glassbox-design.com/2008/piet...ynthetic-reef/

Interesting LED light. I think it is a great idea to use it on non-photosynthetic corals because you don't need to worry about intensity, but can focus on a pleasing color instead.
In this particular fixture, can you change the bulb colors to your liking, or are they fixed to a specific color combination? Have you compelted the fresh water testing of your main tank system and coverted to salt yet?

I don't need strong light for these kind of corals. Just want nice color for viewing. I can change any color on this lighting. It is not fixed. I already completed fresh water testing. The only equipment I need now is RO/DI unit. They promised to install next week.

Remarkable Live Rock.
Due to shipping issues, we seldom see interesting pieces like that in my part of the U.S. Amazing thread. LL

It is very difficult to find somebody import live rock to BKK as well.

Following this thread for a while, the attention to detal is incredible.
Can't wait to see it populated. Do you have a link to the LED light fixture, I have seen it somewhere. Thanks Andy

Chingchai,
Love, love, LOVE your build! What an inspiration! It took me about 3 hours to read through this entire thread(it was a page turner) and I am just amazed at all the work that you have put into this. The result is just incredible! I look forward to more pics and more information that you will share with all of us! Thank you! Last edited by LadyAqua; 08/17/2009 at 09:11 AM. |

What makes this thread a million time more rewarding to read than another massive build that got removed from this site is the fact that all details are beautiful. You're not building a MASSIVE concrete box and filling it with water. That box will/would have possibly never looked very good no matter how fancy the house around it.
You're on a level of detail I've never seen before. This is more than an aquarium and my hat goes off to you! Too often I find that builds on this size level make serious compromises in aesthetics to achieve that size. All aspects of this build are world class and STUNNING.
