YHS Posted September 1, 2015 Author Share Posted September 1, 2015 I think maybe is better to adjust your light when your livestock is in. I did not use the orpek lighting before, so not sure about the spread of t he light but I hang my AI about 24" from water seriously bro? 60 cm from waterline. hmmm, will try to adjust later tonight. thanks for the input. yeah, you are right, low height definitely causes problem such as salt creeps.

Remember to adjust the light slowly to allow the corals to get use or bleach easily.. waiting for more update! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand orphek lights are strong however tried hanging 60 cm last night, i noticed the lights are too bright and spilling all over the room. Maybe i will do as Larry suggested, which is adjusting height after the water is in and check the best height using a PAR meter. sorry guys, my build kinda slow... cos got extra work at the office. business expansion really take a lot of time to do.

YHS Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 The top bracing look good . Is it made of glass or acrylic ? There is no bottom bracing ? the top bracing made from one piece crystal clear glass. it does have bottom bracing. its a full glass instead of 4 small pieces of glass. i just love the look of a full panes instead of small pieces glass... considering im going to go with barebottom.
