I'm posting this here just for my record as I find it is a good way on keeping track of my tank parameters.
I always seem to lose the piece of paper I wrote them down on.
Ca: 500 ppm
KH: 5 dKH
Mg: 1.400 ppm
Temp: 25'c
NO3: 0
pH: 8.3
NO4: 0.08 ppm
SG: 0.026 ppm
Some updated FT pics to follow.

Hey Tok
Tank looks amazing it just gets better an better my aim is to get my tank as good as yours
just a quick question i know you was using ATI T5 lighting with a combination of colours but what was the wattage of the lighting? are the bulbs the same watttage as the red sea max 250 stock bulbs which are 39w?

Thanks MJS
The ATI T5's are also 39w but the colours are better than the stock bulbs.
The combination I have gone with makes all the colours pop and seem more radiant.

All good Matt
Now if you all say PLEASE I'll show you all something rather spectacular!!!
In the mean time.... Matt my long tentacle anemone is like the rest of the animals in my zoo, if you dont look after it and pay it enough attention it will pack it's bags and move on.
To keep mine in the correct place (which it chose) I feed it every 3 days and make sure it is not bullied my clown fish.
It loves silver side and is fed religiously by it's protector (Mr Clown) when I feed the tank.
My skimmer is stock and works like a charm, but if not maintained correctly can become a little noisy.

Today I changed my lamps out and I have decided to give the Red Sea Spec T5 lamps a test.
I'm well surprised at how very similar they are to what I already had but not nearly as yellow as the original RSM T5 that came with the hood.
They are not to blue either and all my corals seem to pop with color and look a lot more natural.
