I'm coming to Calgary on the weekend of the 19th. Are you free that Sat the 20th? Maybe we can get some foosing in. Let me know. I was actually going to see if you were coming up for the tournament. But I guess not. Maybe we'll get some foosing in while I'm in town.

Well, I've been busy and don't have much to report except for a lighting upgrade tonight. I added 2 x 48" 54 watt T5's in between my 60" T5's. I had an old workhorse 7 kicking around and everything else so all it cost me were the bulbs. I went with the KZ coral light II bulb (about 14k I think). I really like it. Now I have the actinics come on first, then the fiji purples next, then the 14k's, and then the halides and then everything comes off in reverse order. Not that my tank wasn't bright enough before, but it does make it noticeably brighter. I like having more stages of lighting because I can enjoy my tank in different colours it seems.

Corals are growing like weeds so I've been doing lots of pruning. Colours are great, and the fish are happy.

and the electric meter spins like a top:razz:.....so how many watts you running in total now Dez?

I'm only running 1174 watts on my display (5 x 2 x 2). Not too bad eh?:biggrin:

Although I run 300 watts on my 4 x 2 x 14" tall frag tank, but not a long photoperiod.

"Can you see the light-a".......Enmax loves you huh?:lol:

A few random shots from today with halides on

Green Stag w/ blue tips....this had a rough go for the first few months - fell into a lot of things and got stung, it was browned out from a ballast that went for a week, I was considering getting rid of it, but now it's got awesome polyp extension and it turned green on me and has started growing like a weed.
