Yes. The Radions gives you the full spectrum... I guess you can always add other colour LED strips or replace the lights with other LED lights but the Radions already has them and with its clean and sleek design, I don't have to fiddle around so much. From a cost perspective, I figured that had I gone with the Sols I would have had to pay a few hundred dollars to have it upgraded close to a Radion.

Not too much to add for March... picked up a new Eheim 1262 pump for my return from Blue World Aquarium to replace my old 7 yr old pump. From what I've read I should notice a quieter pump from what I am currently using. Hope to have it in this weekend.



As for stock I picke up a new tang (also from Blue World) a week and a half ago... Introducing Scarface...



Why I called him Scarface? You will have to watch...

To be able to pull through from this type of ordeal I just have to have him.

Some new pics (under royal blue leds) of LPS I purchased from Snappy a month ago...





Couple of new sps from Progressive...





Several misc non macro shots...

That's a horrible video to watch. I almost had to close it...

Very nice to finally see him in a place to call home.

I also rescued a fish that was hurt through some sort of ordeal. He is a True Percula with a mouth that is half healed shut. I have small pellets to feed him but he still has hardly grown lol. Can you guess what My wife named him? lol

Default April SPS macro pics

Not much happening tonight so I took some macro pics of sps in the tank. There have been some good signs of new growth since changing the lights to LED and I have also started dosing brightwell's microbacter7. It seems to be working as the skimmer is working harder as the skimmate is thicker and the stench is even stronger than before.

Here are a couple of pics of the tank...

wow, just caught up with your latest photos and.. wow.. You've got quite the nice collection there and all doing fabulous! So now that you've pretty much got her dialed in, what's your husbandry like these days? That is, water change amount and schedule, dosing, additives, etc.
