Salinity - 1.024
PH - 8.2
Ammonia - 0
Nitrites - 0
Nitrates - 10/20

My Nitrates have fluxuated between 20 and 10, I'll be adding my Chaeto today, and we'll see if that helps conrtrol that a little more. I plan on letting the tank run for about another week with the Chaeto before adding any type of Clean up Crew.

I did about a 20% water change last night, and I plan on doing a 10% change next week before I add my CUC.

Looks good!

what bulb are you using?

looks great, the light looks kinda funny, not in a bad way :0

ksauerb322- Thanks I appreciate it!

MarkL- I'm currently running the 14k that came with the light, I also have a few 10k's but I'm really happy with the 14 now that's it starting to burn in a little. At first I wasn't to fond of the blueness, but it's whitened up a little and I'm totally lovin it.

JetChris- I know exactly what you mean. I searched forever to try and find a 16.5" 70W sunpod and then ran across this one brand new with 7 extra Bulbs for $125 shipped. The wifey hates it she says it looks like a giant spider sitting on top of the tank.

Haha, I can see that.

Have you tried turning the legs around to see if it looks better?
