you fool! j/k... well maybe a little. one day you will try a Phoenix or a Radium and never go back

ha ha. It's in my office collecting dust. Do you mean the sump setup? I've seen a handful of europeans with Royal Exclusiv stuff. If I ever go visit the UK again, I'm going to buy and ship back to me. Wait... I have relatives in England. I wonder if I can purchase and ship through them. :scheming:

Thanks jedi and dorky!

FYI, I have a lot of experience with the Kelvin of halides. I had 11 tanks once upon a time and 4 lit by 10,000K halides over FW tanks. 10,000K looks great over FW but won't do your fish and corals any favors in the looks department. A lot of colors will be washed out. The light is white and...

Why do I always want stuff I can't have? I've been up half the night trying to figure out how I can get one of these... and one of these... I'd be able to cut down on evaporation and tidy up the sump area better... Plus they look great! I remember seeing them awhile ago, but now that I'm...

This is a great store and Aaron is absolutely top notch. SPS Coral store is definitely worth the trip

I'd go Radium 250w all the way for a mogul base. It's not as blue as you'd think a 20,000K might be.

nerite snail eggs.

BTW: Red=Left rear spire 150w Radium M80 Magnetic Ballast Yellow=Middle front spire 150w Radium Electronic Ballast Green=Right rear spire 250w Phoenix Electronic Ballast.

you should see the other side. It's a solid wall of lunar eclipse.

So here's a FTS with the fixture visible. They're a little crooked as I'd been knocking around in the tank the past few days and forgot to straighten them up before the pic. Regular FTS: I'm still moving some of the SPS around as I decide where I want them permanently. The mystic sunset on the...

All to end up using fixtures I owned before I even started this tank. All that money down the drain. *sigh.

I don't know, man. I'm in love with it. It's the perfect light.

I still have it. Not sure if I want to sell it.

Ha ha, thanks. I mapped out PAR yesterday. I'll post a mapped pic for the next FTS update.

So... I'm in the process of upgrading and right sizing quite a few components in my tank. Lighting: After realizing LEDs weren't for me, it's taken me a long while to find a solution that delivered enough PAR for SPS to fully surround each spire. Unless I end up with photoinhibition, I'm...

This was my exact comment in my RC build thread after 2 months with the tuxedo urchins.

Tuxedo urchins will keep it mowed. I had 3 in my tank and they took care of it until it finally died out.

i'll take a pic tomorrow.
