Seriously though, can't wait to see it completed & the corals grown out.

Gregg, thank you! Now that I have a journal set up here I will be able to see the frags grow over time. Many thanks to you! Will be posting an update in the near future. I've had the flu and has set me back two weeks. The parameters are out a bit as I've not had the time to set up the doser. Still working and planning in how to hang the three radions... Until then the MH remain.

Looking forward to some nice top down macro's of the frags.

Just a minor update... It's been 50 days since i moved and switched everything to the new tank and i have finally gotten around to check on the parameters and it looks like I still need to tinker with the DKH, Ca and Mg levels.
CA 400- Would like to get back to 450
MG 1280- would like to get back to 1425
PH 7.7
Temp 78
DKH 7- would like it at 7.7
PO4 0
NO3 0
SG 1.026

Corals are gradually adjusting to the new tank and Colors and are bouncing back from the shock due to the move. Still using MH but I do see some new growth on a few sps but more noticeable with the zoas.

I think next week is going to be an exciting week for me as I've planned to have the Radions hanging over the tank! Stay tune for more...

Hey buddy, Looking GREAT! I will be coming over this week so we can get started on finishing up that stand for you.

I wrote you an email with the details, I cant wait to see the tank up and running!!!

Finally made time to hang the new Radions... Here is a quick update... took a few pictures with my new Iphone 4s... Boy, what a huge difference compared to my old 3gs. sharper images and not as grainy as the new phone now has a built in flash.



I have not taken down the old lights yet but the MH will be gone tonight!

Sweet! Can't wait to see those fired up

I wonder how you could clean up the cords hanging off the back when using pendants? Maybe one of those plastic coil thingys?

FWIW, as a LED hater, I was really impressed seeing Shelley's Radions. Really nice light and no noticeable disco ball effect.
