    My Elos goes Atlantis

    Thanks guys for the nice comments. I am very happy with the UV unit. When I posted the setup I had it just installed and saw some improvement in water clarity but now having it running for a while it is amazing. I always had good quality but never saw the water as clear as it is now. To...

    Time for a little update. There will be a "big" update next week. A fellow reefer who had a stunning tank for many many years decided to leave the hobby and was selling off all his beautiful corals. I was able to get quite a few from frags to colonies. Will pick them up next week and post some...

    Today I tried to make a video from the Elos. It is not the greatest but not that bad either. It seems camcorder and LED's don't like each other that much and the true colors of the corals don't always get captured very well. Therefore I included some cool pics to illustrate how the corals...

    Quick shot to show how nice the coralline starts to grow. There was no LR when I started. Just dry rock. NO pic manipulation. That's the way it looks

    I dose Omega and Pro Skimmer and my softies are doing really good actually but I must say I only dose once a week and way below the recommended dosing.

    Think it is time to update my thread again with some color....;) The tank is doing great. The Elos Purist Line is doing a great job. Even with heavy feeding it keeps the nitrates and phosphates down to 0. Here are some pics. Stll some issues with the camera and the LED's to get great...
