    Yep Yep, the 48" is a 12k and the 12" is a actinic blue true lumen pro.  I just really wish they made a 60" true lumen pro.  Then I have some regular true lumens I used to use on my 55 just because I had them.

    Tank is 5 feet long, 20 tall, and 19 wide.  The 48 inch is awesome considering the 6 inches on either side of it that it has to light.  I messed witth two 48 inches a 12k and an actinic blue on our show tank at the store, which is 48 long and 25" high.  The entire aquarium was amazing!  I prefered it over the two halides and 4 t5's that are currently running it.  Can't wait to switch it over.

    Tank is up and running for a few days now.  Still need to work on the T5 ballast and figure out why I'm getting air bubbles coming out of the return pump but other than that I love it!!!

    The rock scape is almost done, I just need to tweak the right side a bit, but I love the left side so far.  As long as my fish don't knock anything over were good.

    So while hunting fot the cause of the air bubbles coming out of the return I noticed this [​IMG]

    Basically the ring of the bulk head is now a C which scares me greately!!! 

    On a better note I found that if you block half the hole in the elbow of the loc line that is drilled to prevent back syphon you get rid of all the bubbles making my aquairum happy!!!

    Haven't updated this thread in a while.

    I've now got 2 skimmers running in the sump.  I'm in the process of adding a 10 gallon tank to the s sump so I can build in media trays to hold filter floss since I'm sick of filter socks and it will give me mroe room to hold more live rock in the sump.  I'm almost done setting up my dwarf octopus tank just need to drill 2 more holes and plub it into my sump.

    Other than that my tank hans't changed much at all and I'm still in love with it so I guess thas a good sign!
