Cant wait to see the lights - what did you end up going with again? Don't recall seeing it in your thread.

I went with radions. Here's hoping they're everything they're cracked up to be!

I'm envious! How many did it take 3 or 4?

Ill be doing my 200g this summer, and would like to do the same if I can get them at a good price.

Haha, 3 or 4? Adam had to one up the TOTM winner and go with 8 :wink:.
Really excited to see photos when you get them!

It's officially official now? Congratulations man, I can only hope my tank looks half as good as yours one day! Where's the write up?

And yah. 8. sigh. I blame Levi. If his tank wasn't so damn spectacular under them I probably wouldn't have bought them. It's most certainly overkill, but if I can't use all 8 over my main display, I'll put one or two over the frag chamber in my sump. I'm still getting night terrors over how much they cost. Figuring out how to hang them will be entertaining.

Thanks! I keep trying to tell my fiancé the same thing, but so far we are disagreeing on how awesome it is that those piles of white rocks are invisibly coming back to life after 65 million years of sterility in the ground.

8! Yikers, that's the price of a small car! I bet it looks spectacular though.

Well I just picked them up yesterday and haven't sorted out how I'm going to hang them yet (Kevin is helping me come up with something that will allow me to raise and lower them), so at the moment this is the closest I've got to a pic...

I did however take one of those MP60's and put it in the tank yesterday and holy freaking crap. I'm going to have to do some playing around with rock scaping and power head placement. With the powerhead about half way between the sand and the top of the water, it can cause full blown sand tornados on the second lowest setting! The power of it gives me tingles.

Jebus! There is $7500 of goods right there. Amazing.
