Orphek Atlantik

[DerekL]

My Orphek Atlantik came Tuesday. So last night we moved the stand and tank into the living room and put it where we wanted it so I could hang the Atlantik over the tank. Wanted to do this before any water and live rock was put in. The wife put a coat of urethane on the stand after hanging the lights. Here are just a few pics. Looks like I will be starting to set everything up tonight. I will put the doors on the sides and the front of the stand once everything is up and running to allow myself room to work.

Does anyone one if anyone in the Windsor area has a par meter? Once I have the tank filled with water I am curious to see the readings it produces. I have only seen ones on YouTube so I am just really curious. I saw one on YouTube who got over 400 on his sandbed in a 24" deep tank the same depth as mine.

Is the guy from Detroit a member on here? I am just curious what reading we will see with this light. It's an awesome looking light. I am sure once you get your Atlantik up and running you will do some checking. Would just like to be able to show some number that the light produces

I am a member on one of Michigans forums as I wasn't aware of this forum until a few months ago. But I really don't go to that forum much anymore now that I have found all you wonderful guys. I think I may know who you are talking about tho
