Installed 3 kessil 350w on my 125 hope it's worth it ,,,

 

looks real nice!

 

Thanks Pete ,did u ever get your big tank up and running

 

Yeah, it's all up and going now. Got fish and corals in it. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif I will have to post a few photos soon!

 

Cool what size ,a what did u do for lights

 

it is a 135 gallon. And I put DIY leds over it.

 

whats the dimensions on a 135, and just out of curiosity what did your lights run$ just got a comparison to what I spent

 

The tank is 72in x 18in x 24in (length x width x height).

As for the lights, I think it was around $650 for the all the lights. I added extra LEDs to the heatsinks so that I could support SPS all around the tank. At the sand bed, I have 350 par in some places. Nice and bright and the corals seem to love it.

 

Are u sure 135, I think it a 125 if not cool same as mine ,and I payed to much for my leds for sure then almost double the cost same tank ,o well there's the next one right lol

 

Yeah, pretty sure it is a 135. I think it is like 2 inches deeper then a 125. (24 inches vs 22 inches) I also only have 2 fixtures in my tank. I have a 12 glass crossbrace. So, I did not put a fixture over that. Instead, I made longer heatsinks to cover most of the tank. I have just a bit of shadow in the middle of the tank. But, I am pretty happy with it. I will try to post a few pictures tonight.

 

Sounds good and find out about the gal I'd like to no

 

Yeah, its the 135 gallon.
