Re: My 265 gallon in wall reef.

Thanks all,, I tried full tank shots yesterday and the sun was causing the windows and french doors to show up on the glass... I was gonna go down after dark last night and didnt have time... I promise I will try tonight.

Re: My 265 gallon in wall reef.

WOW! awesome. Lots of light, do you find that that much light is a necessity, or do you just like the look?

Re: My 265 gallon in wall reef.

I like that much light because I can keep almost any coral in the tank and not have to worry about if it gets enough light. It is about 7.5 watts per gallon which is what I strived for...
