Tok's Red Sea Max 250

How often you replace your ATI's, I was suing geissemans and replaced every year, became expensive, so went LED route?

I change them out every year, I'm still contemplating going LED but I prefer the colour combination of the T5's.

Very inspiring! :)

What salt you using for the changes? Just got my RS250 and going to be following your suite... Tank is looking amazing!

(P.S What camera you using for the pics?)

Thanks floh, I'm using Tropic Marine Pro and have done so since I started this hobby. I did try the Red Sea Pro but I was not happy with the results.

The camera I'm using is a Canon 400D with a 18-55 sigma lens attached to a 4 X filter.

Awesome pics of a nice looking tank.

Thanks Salie

WOW Tokalosh! Awesome tank mate! Great pics as well! Fantastic coloration!

Thanks jacquesb

Must be the best redsea max tank I have ever seen....very nice looking tank!!!

Thanks Jinx, believe you me I have seen better but I'm happy the way mine has tuned out.

I thought I'd share my latest mod with all you Red Sea Max 250 owners.

I took one of these

and put it into this

Now I have an ATI Red Sea Max T5 Hybrid Hood, what a difference it make to finally simulate sunrise and sunset.

Lookiing good! Iv always hated the abruptness of the lights turning on and off in my RSM. Im still thinking of going bigger rather than any upgrades on my tank though. You seen any of the new big RSM tanks in person?

Is that just the wiring inside the hood?!?! :eek:
I was thinking of doing something similar with mine but using the Maxrespect LEDs but just looking at the wires is giving me the heebie-jeebies :lol:

Please take pics of the sunset/sunrise features, would love to see this effect in your tank :)
@dizzyg @bryan and crew set up a RSM 500 last week, they need to upload the pics of the setup...*hint hint guys* :lol:
