What if I'm too lazy to DIY one? Are these prayer reactors for sale? I would definitely like one.

Nice pics Kien. You must have that Northern Delight mounted under some good PAR. I find it to be a hardy acro in terms of STN/RTN but can be a little finicky in terms of colour. When its in its prime though it is stunning.....especially from above. I would love to see some fellow reefers with nice colonies of that one.....good luck.

Thanks. Ya, I do have that one very high up, right under a 250watt halide. That one has become my canary. It is quite fickle and tells me when something is wrong. It turned quite brown when the lights went out for 24 hrs during our June flood but it held it together and got its colour back over the summer. It continues to grow and colour up nicely!
