Lighting Setup for My Reef Tank!
Running an AI Hydra 26, Hydra 52, and a Kessil AP9X on an AquaticLife Hybrid fixture with 4 T5 bulbs (2 Actinic & 2 Blue Plus).
Might be an odd combo, but it’s been working wonders for my tank! I’ve thought about trying other lights, but then I ask myself why change what’s already working? The mix of LED shimmer, T5 spread, and coral growth has been perfect so far.
Do you ever get the itch to try something new, or do you stick with what works? Me…I always get the itch!
Cycle complete on the experiment! Added CUC and my first ever corals last night!! Also upgraded water flow from the nano internal skimmer to Fluval HOB- I didn’t like the space the skimmer was taking up and the HOB gives me more flexibility with carbon filtration option. Upgrade lighting arriving tomorrow!
Upgraded to Hydra Edge, love it !
Top of the morning reefing community, I will be upgrading my tank to innovative marine 25 lagoon very soon then my light to ai prime 16hd afterwards right before getting some corals , just been going thru the uglies but as soon as it’s done let the beauty begin 😄
I made this custom light to hold my AquaIllumination Hydra Edge 44HD.
Hi everyone. If any of you are into 3D printing and want some files for fluval light brackets or shrouds. I'm going to post links of the ones I designed.
Also if anyone is interested and need them. I have designs for for rimless tank lid holders in corner guards for tanks
They're up online for free

Basically finished with the new tank k set up. I just added the LEDs to my MH/T5 fixture and put up the curtain canopy.
Upgraded the Coralife Bio cube 16 with an 12" AI Blade and some shades from Printed Reef
Adding 4 more GHL Mitras 7206’s to the main display. Total of 8 for my Savvy260.
