Saltwater And Reef Tank Builds This forum is for members to show off their saltwater tank and reef tank builds! When setting up a new tank system, its a great idea to post a thread here for several reasons. You'll get advice from fellow aquarists, and the threads are great to look back on in a few years!

I am upgrading my led's to 3w cree's. Each fixture is 240w and has 80 on it. Two will go on my 225 and one on top of my frag tank( 3 total). They will all be controlled by one controller with 24/7 settings completely dimmable and adjustable.




they are being finished now and will be shipped next week ~yay~ ~yay~
