Ace's ATS Build

Thanks! So far so good.. everything is actually working as planned... which in itself is unplanned. LOL. The LEDs seem to put out just the right amount of light, perfect spread, just hoping the spectrum will be good enough. The flow is perfect over the screen and covers the entire slot and the lip on the 1-1/2" to 3/4" reducer is enough to hold the water back so my emergency overflow out the other side is not doing anything. Valve is left fully open in case anything backs up, but as of right now there isn't a drop of water coming out it. That actually surprised me.. it was how I wanted it to work in my head when I was designing it.. but usually things never work out exactly as planned.. this time it did. I guess 3 months of planning/designing/procrastinating since I picked up the tank at a Petco $1 gallon sale back in January paid off. All there is to do now is keep an eye on the LEDs and adjust/replace LEDs with other ones if I feel the need to or just want to experiment to see what gives me the absolute most growth.
WOW! super professional looking build! I wouldnt be surprised if people asked you to build one for em 
Right now, GFO and Rox Carbon.. but hopefully I can once again remove the GFO out of the system once the screen matures.
Quick pic.. Screen @ Day 4.. I can say without a doubt it is growing much faster than my first ATS with CFLs.
