Danhodls 75 Display with 10g Refugium/DSB
by Danhodl Mon 17 Sep 2012, 7:18 pm
Hey guys, i just joined this morning so heres the Tank. I have LED's with some 48" T5's. I run a Skimmer and Algea Scrubber, and as of last week a refugium and DSB. I started fish keeping in high school in 2002, took a break and started a salt water tank with my girlfriend Amanda in 2009. and since pictures speak more than words:

Great looking tank, and I really like the fact that you have it set up so it can be seen from both sides.

nice looking birdsnest 
I have some SPS that doesn't seem to like my tank to well, parameters are good but I have been playing with my lighting trying to find the right height I am using only LED's my LPS and anemone's are loving it and doing great.

14k (36W) on one led because the main one is loaned out other one I am short a driver is running 11 blue and 2 red at (39W) so my LED's are not at full power, but I am only 12" above the water and the SPS are in the top 10" of a 16" deep tank.

I've moved my LED's 56w total, 36 red 108 blue, 360 white down from 6 inches to 3.5'" from the water suface, with immediate response from everything in my tank, maybe you might try lowering? whats your light cycle like?
im doing 2- 9pm the two 48's t5's and 3:30 - 7:30pm for the LED's

seems like you have ample color, maybe they need more, i would def try lowering your lights or moving the unhappy upward and seeing what happens, since light is their primary source maybe they are just hungry, also look at the specific species, obvously if its an acropora Like these its going to chase the light, probably most happy at the top of ur tank
im going to try growing some of my birds nest under some SHO lights Ill update its progress if anyone is interested
