As the title says I thank everyone who got zoos from me. Due to your efforts my animals now live under upgraded lighting. That is a new IceCap 250W ballast and a new Venture 14000K bulb. It doesn't match Jonathan's tank in brightness, but it does look good.

Does your new setup photograph well?

I just hooked it up this morning, so I have not tried to photograph it yet. I will have a go at it this evening when the window in the background is no longer sunlit.

Good to hear bob so you're hosting the next get-together? LOL

Now the real question is... When do the old lights go up for sale?

How do you like the 14K? I found mine to be quite blue at first, but after a few weeks it burnt in nicely. I think that spectrum with 10KK and 420 supplemental is the perfect combo.

Right now it is nice and blue. I have no plans to supplement it ever.

BTW here's a picture of the 52 with the new lighting.



And this is where the old ballast and bulb are for now.
