Hey Steve,
Don't know if you remember me...I bought your 2 L.E.D.'s about a year back. They're still going strong. BTW beautiful new set up. I see you sold that huge hairy mushroom you had?
So I guess your thoughts on L.E.D.'s is not good. Based on what im reading on this thread you are seriously favoring T5's, huh?
Anyway keep up the awesome work...

Of course, I still remembered you. It is good to know that those two led fixtures are still going strong. How is your new set up? I sold that giant hairy mushroom to on of the reefers here on this forum.

My new set up now is sps dominant. I did not have great success in colorations for the sps from the last two Maxspect Razors, but the soft corals are doing fantastic under my old led fixtures.

I have recently switched back to T5 and things are slowly looking better than ever. I have already noticed polyp extensions and the stick color up very good under the ATI T5.

Good to hear from you again Big Daddy Rafael.

Picked up this Aquamaxx EM200 skimmer last week and did not have a chance to get this toy in action until tonight. This EM200 skimmer looks nice and the built quality is great. The collection cup is huge. The sicce pump is super quite and I will wait to see how is this bad boy running for the next few days.

Thanks Jimmylam2010 for hooking me up with R33faddict for this great price on this skimmer.

This is an update on a build thread. It has pictures.
Should be mandatory to have new pictures on new posts on build threads.

Just got these two Kessils A350W to play around with and to supplement to the T5 for lacking of the shimmering department. I have tried different locations to mount these Kessils on the tank, but this is the only spot (see pix), which give an awesome lighting to the tank. But I just don't like how the Kessils are positioning now. They are looking just too busy on top of the tank, which they are taking a away a sexiness of a rimless tank.

Btw, the shimmering of these Kessils is freaking awesome...pictures do don't justice. The zoas are instantly opening and showing their colorations not too long after the Kessils are on.

Do you guys have any suggestions where and how to better position these Kessils? Any feedbacks on the mounting of these Kessils are welcome and thx in advance. Pictures are taken with Kessils on only.
