new corals under actinics
 
I didn't make it before the lights went out so here's a couple a recent acquisitions under actinics. Sorry if they're a bit grainy, my camera is getting old.

New Hydnophora (spelling?)

Wow those are great photos. How big are your new additions? Were they from a local reefer?

I second the call for a full tank shot.

Thanks everyone. The new additions were from a local reefer; Kaboom. He has an amazing tank, and was just thinning out a few corals before moving. Both new corals are about 5".

The pics above were taken under 2x 39 watt T5 true German actinics. Here's a full tank shot under just the actinics, and one with the hadlides on.

Wow!

What do you use for your lighting, and how is it configured? It looks great! The colors just pop under actinics, and look just as great under what I'm assuming are MHs.

I only overhauled the tank not too long ago, so I still see a lot of ground to make up as far as coral color is concerned, but I do appreciate the nods.

Catherine, I use 1 400 watt 12K Reeflux MH, & 2 German T5 actinics (39 watt) They're all running parallel with the length of the tank.
