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!
Literally new! This is my 75G Saltwater tank! Trying to learn as I go.
Jump into it with 0 knowledge to make happy one of my kiddos and I have fallen in love with it.
As you can see I don’t have the best set up or equipment but saving to get it soon and to upgrade to a bigger tank and add corals eventually. About 5 months in, everything have been stable with couple water changes here and there to keep up the good health.
Any feedback or advance is welcome!
(I know about starfish but my wife got them for the kiddos and we try to relocate them and my kids cry so much)

Spent the past couple days upgrading the 20 long reef tank in the first pic to a 40 Breeder in the second 2 pics and I’m really happy with the way it came out, still tweaking things, gotta move that heater to the back of the 10 gallon tank that’s drilled and plumbed directly into it. The 40 is technically the sump for the 10 gallon so I guess I have a 10 gallon tank with a 40 breeder display sump lol when the baby yellow tang grows up he’s moving to the 40 and then to the 60 below that and then knowing me I’ll probably upgrade that tank too 🤣🤣 let me know what you think, I’m thinkin fillin it out with LPS.
