Well, I made a mistake I think. I was at a fish store that wasnt really local, and they had a scopas tang. For Whatever reason I thought they were one of the tangs that stayed smaller, but they really aren't.

So it's only about 2 inches. I think I'll have plenty of time to move it to the 180 when I get that set up.

Well, I just bought some DIY LEDs already assembled, the guy had them on his tank for about 3 months then sold his tank. It's two 1"x24" heat sinks, 12 royal blue LEDs on each and two drivers. For 100 bucks, the kit not assembled on rapid led is 165, lol. Should add some nice pop to the tank!

Well, got the LEDs and hooked them up. Zip tied it to my fixture for now, lol.

I'm going to try to hang it from the ceiling when we move. But the colors are amazing with just them on!

Nice pickup on the LEDs. I have one of the 24" strips on my tank as well but bought my kit from reefledlights.com. Good price for 2 strips. The scopas will be fine for quite a while in a 90 (IMO :)).

Obviously the pics will never do the lights justice, but I love them!

The tank is a 60, but yeah i think I'll be ok lol

Looking at most of those ball anemones, they look pretty clear, this is mostly all white/opaque so I'm thinking ricordea, I need to get attached to a rock somehow lol.
