Thanks man. There's an art to photographing them and I am no artist that's for sure.

Coming from you that means a lot, I have been aspiring to have a tank like yours for years. And are you serious? What did you get?

Hahaha! After my first frag sale I'm now only net minus... oh god I don't even want to think about it. The major drawback to multiple radions - no bulk discounts and the number of things that can go wrong with them is multiplied directly by the number of fixtures. If Ecotech comes back to me and says I need to pay to replace the entire light puck on each fixture that has one or more white diode malfunctioning out I don't know what I'm going to do.

Nah give it time! It's only been a couple of weeks. I keep hearing that the Mitras is amaze balls. They also have diodes down in the low 400 nm range that is just plain absent from my tank, and I think the whites are a slightly different spectrum, so it's entirely possible this is just those frags getting a suntan for the first time. Each one of my corals went through a tantrum after going in to my tank lasting anywhere from a month, up to a year in the case of my wild colonies from Walt Smith (I think you got frags from a couple of those). They're going to need to adjust for sure. If I were ever to go temporarily insane and replace all of my lights at once I would have a hard time discounting the Mitras, though I've been sooooo tempted by the ATI hybrid. Anyway, I need to stop trying to talk you out of spending money on aquarium equipment lol.
