There they are stored on canreef :biggrin:

:cool: big difference,guess i should start saving for better lighting

wow nice pics! nice and white! got 2 400w on the way from venkiw for my 55, overkill but who know when prices like this will come along, I can always run 1 for now, and use both when i get a bigger tank.

Jesse,
That's a sweet upgrade :biggrin:

I also like the empty scallop shells for clam holders-great :idea:

I don't see any pictures. :mad:

he problem is on shaw's end not much i can do might be up later.

Edit I was gonna take some picture more pictures i did some moving around of stuff, but i blew a fuse :rolleyes: The lights are just refireing so i'll wait a bit till everything reopens

Edit 2 I fixed the photos

here 2 more I move all my frags together and moved my clams in a group as well.

Not the best of photos I'll try and get some over head shots another day

New look to the tank

http://www.canreef.com/photopost/dat...2-med.jpg?4094

just got one of my 400w hooked up, i cannot believe how the color, its awsome, nice and bright white. Should only need a bit of actinic supp. IMO. If anyone is hisitant, don't be they look great.

Sean would you say they are any bluer than Ushios are?

i have never seen Ushio's in person (atleast that i can remember) but from the pics of the ushio's and these first hand, i would say they are....but they are not blue by any strech, just an AWSOME bright white... like i said might new a few actinics, but not much more.

I should have said early but the photos of my tank are with NO actinic of anykind

looks nice, do you have a blue background?

Steve

You're poor creatures are gonna be all freaked out. :mrgreen: :eek:

Yes it's a blue background, I prefer the blue over the black i think it make things seem brighter. Sorry for the delayed reply, And already i have noticed a considerable amount of growth

can you do me a favor and take a pic looking from the side accross you tank with out a flash.. I want to see how the lights look with out a blue background as that will influence the look of the light.
