Terryz_ Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 The Sps and Monti seems like in very bad condition... Is it the lighting? They looks like they are bleaching... The monti you can just epoxy under the monti like a stick.. Quote Member of: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPS need higher calcium concentration? On second thought... hmm maybe skip SPS lah. focus on softies and LPS. in a pico tank, these already might not be easy. All the more difficult with SPS. Hey saw your zoas frag, seemed to have white dots. hope they are not the zoaspox spreading round the community.

jackywongto Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 If you make the acrylic casing, then you can hang it over with a wall bracket. Did you check the cost for making the casing? Too thin acrylic will warp quite badly since there is much heat involved. I have got a spare giessemann nova casing if you want to use it. not sure if it will fit though. but your tank will be as tall as the light lol. hmmmm.... What is the dimension of the metal plate. Maybe some hard plastic box will do the trick. The sim lim tower black coloured plastic box might be suitable too. Those used for poly projects. actually have quite a lot of options to do the casing. but mounting wise.... might need to hang it.

I help u to check if it is possible. also will need photo of your tank location to help bro. I am thinking of using - 2x bookstand (drill hoe and bolt them together forming a letter c-shape) - tuck it on side of your tank. maybe 2 on each side. - then just mount your LED on the 2 side. I am just thinking brazingly.
