Then the real fun started. So many nice corals out there but not enough light.... I got the mod bug!!!!
Upgraded my lights with the DIY parts kit from nanotuners. I doubled up on my PC's. BioCube comes with 2 36 watt PC's I was able to add 2 more for a total of 144 watts. Nanotuners only supplies a heatshield so I modded my original reflector to work on top of the nanotuners heatshield to put out more light.
As you can see from the above pic the extra lights pushed my moonlights WAY back so that they were almost useless shining down behind my nice aquascape. I really enjoyed looking in the tank with the moonlights not to mention the cool ambiance it added to my livingroom. So my next project was to increase the moonlight. I bought a kit online that had a pod with 2 blue moons and a jack to daisy chain more moons. The way the BioCube hood is setup I was able to cut 2 pieces of plexiglass and make a little housing for them to keep safe from any water or condensation. One pair in each corner.
Not the prettiest job Ive ever done but you cant see em and they are totaly functional.
