looks like a great project! so what light fixture are you running? and did you go with the blue bulbs? want to know more about the blue versus attinc?

For the time being I replaced my actinic blue with an aquablue +
http://www.jlaquatics.com/product/lb...aBlue+%2B.html I'm still undecided as to whether I want to add a pendant or not, I know for a fact I plan on NO SPS, but there are a lot of LPS I'm really interested in so was thinking I may replace my 2 bulb T5 with a 4 bulb. Running 2x 14-15k, an aquablue+ and an actinic. I won't mention the LFS (not J&L who have corrected a lot of the mis-information I was given, they are great ) but I really was thrown off the right path and am correcting it slowly. Myka had a lot of great suggestions as well about everything. I know I could just get high end bulbs and make the 2 bulb fixture work, but I just dont want it to "work" Plus I do want a hood with moonlights |
Just picked up a Neptune JR controller, a new Hydor powerhead and a CPR refigium and light!
It's gonna be a very fun afternoon! Now to figure out how the hell to make this controller work |
Long time since an update:

Wow... now I know why I never bought any xenia :eek:
Looking really great, your colors are really awesome with that bulb combination. |

Well this is long overdue for an update, even if it doesn't get much attention comapred to some tanks :P
Over the last while veerything has grown awesomely, purchased a JBJ auto top-off, new R/O filter unit and quite a few new corals. The JBJ one night for unknown reasons decided to to stay on and flood my sump dropping the salinity to 1.18 and the temp to 77 but nothing was affected luckily! Had one of my clowns just randomly die... no signs or anything just happened within a few hours. Waited a while before adding more fish to the tank after that point to make sure it wasn't something getting to the other fish. Added an new wonderful Madarin dragonet, eats mysis and pellets like a pig! Also added a yellow watchmen goby who found his place quickly and has a nice cave to hang out in. Aquired few more zoa frags, some galaxy eye chalice from oceanic and a really new super green open brain coral. The xenia grows so quickly now I pretty much weekly need to add new rock for it to grow onto and frag it. Traded away two whole huge chunks already for other things... anyways here's the pics: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...a/3stamped.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...on1stamped.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...et2stamped.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...wthstamped.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...usestamped.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...hotstamped.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...gmestamped.jpg |
