      UXDesigners Red Sea Max 250 v2

      What's up SDR! I know, I know... Second RSM 250 after trying out a 50 Starphire Cube of which I liked but I had issues with it being rimless. In my last RSM 250 build I retrofitted the lights with all LED's but I wanted to have some T5 supplementation this time around. In this build I decided to run a few less lights and keep 2 T5's, I'm running 2 ATI Blue+ Bulbs.

      Specs:
      Red Sea Max 250
      Rapid LED 32 LED DIY kit (inspired by Radion XR30w Pro) retrofit into stock location
      TLF 150 Reactor running RowaPhos (Fits in left rear chamber with sponge removed)
      Replaced stock fans with SilentX fans
      • Channel 1 (Blues / 8am - 8pm) - 14 Royal Blue Cree XT-E
      • Channel 2 (Color Matrix / 10am - 6pm) - 3 Royal Blue Cree XT-E, 2 Blue Cree XP-E, 2 Red-Orange Cree XP-E, 2 Green Cree XP-E
      • Channel 3 (White / 12pm - 4 pm) - 1 Warm White Cree XP-G, 4 Cool White Cree XM-L, 4 Cool White Cree XP-G

      Very nice Frankie, too bad the cube didn't work out. What issues were you having with it ?

      Good eyes, yes that is a flame angel. I had him in the 50 cube for a couple months and then in this tank with no issues until all of a sudden he started nipping at the SPS, I've sold him.

      50 cube was a great tank overall, no issues with the tank as far as equipment and I think the setup is very solid. The issue was with my kids not being able to resist wanting to through stuff into the tank because it was rimless. Other issues were light spill, having the tank in the living room the light would spill all over the ceiling and it was very awkward to see glimmer lines while watching TV at light. With the hood, the RSM250 keeps the light in the tank plus it cuts back on evaporation and any odors.
