Very nice thanks I'm adding it to the Future upgrade list. The timers look the same so install should be the same. I have enough parts laying around to do a T5 supplement to the lights just need a ballast and bulbs.

My magnetic door switches came in today, got them off amazon for 8 bucks for 3 of them. Wire them into my Apex breakout box so now when I open my cabinet doors my stand lights turns on which is pretty cool. And dosed 115 mls of Seachem Stability to help with the cycle.

was able to find the ballast, I don't really have any way to test it out if it works but it should. I'll send pics later today.

15265996739691697868281.jpg 1526599747085679830914.jpghaven't updated in a while but the tank is doing really good. I transferred about 70 corals from my cube and they are all growing well already have coralline algae growing on the rock and tank walls. I also added t5s to my black boxes the combination is working pretty good. As of now I have 11 fish looking to add about 2 or 3 more. Need alot more coral the tank looks empty.

I also added Avast Marine reactor which I like because you can by the kit and build it yourself.1526605925334621956538.jpg and also a apex dos this thing is awesome I've been using BRS dosing pumps for the last few years and they work good but this is a whole new ballgame. Right now I am dosing 25 mls of alkalinity and calcium. It dose alkalinity 83 times a day at 0.4 mls a dose. Every 17 minutes it drops like three drops each time it's really accurate. I've only had it for a 2 weeks so can't say much for a longevity but right now it's great.15266062629242114571757.jpg
