OK I'll admit that I haven't read the whole thread My contacts are almost done and I'm too lazy to get up and put my glasses on. I linked here from another thread after seeing that you have lumenmax reflectors? Which ones and how are you liking them?

hahaha... the main part of the rebuild starts around page 6-7 I think...

as for the lights... I got the Sunlight Supply Lumenmax 3 reflectors with Ushio 14K bulbs... Loving them so far, only thing I might change is how I have them hanging because right now they have the cords running parallel with the tank, then bending out to the back. I been considering spinning them 90 degrees so the cables go straight out the back without any bends.. I don't think it would affect my light spread on the tank, if anything it might make it better I think..

But yea, great reflectors, will probably upgrade my 175W SE on my 40G to a 250 Lumenmax..

Starting to swap a few pieces out of my 20G that I want to keep in my 75G, so figured it was time some pics.

My very unhappy (with me) Torch..


Bright Green Yumas (its starting to split and spawn, just can't get good pics) also a red yuma in the background..


Finally,
My Orange and Green Tongas.. Got it when it was just one, and it has now split into 4..
