yeah, I like it. I use it as my "home base" for all the reef forums I'm a member of. Just a good way to keep track of info.

lots

Yesterday, I added an Efflo, peach millepora and a Rommel's Original Rainbow Acro. I'll post some pictures as soon as the corals a photo worthy

I also moved one of my vortechs (the back one) to the other side, in order to create better flow, and less competition between the 2.

The talk looks great, I love the ATI fixture with the super actinic and fiji purple added.

My ORA red planet is growing extremely fast, as is my setosa.

What are you using for T5 lamps now? Is it 2 ATI AB Specials, 2 ATI Aquablue +, 1 KZ Fiji Purple, 1 UVL Super Actinic?

If that's what you're using, you don't find it too pink?

Right now I'm using 4 AB+, 1 AB special, 1 KZ Fiji Purple and find it's a bit pink for my taste. I'm changing out my lamps this week and leaning toward 2 ATI AB specials, 2 ATI Aquablue +, 1 KZ Fiji purple, 1 UVL Super Actinic.

That is correct:

2 ab special
2 ab plus
1 fiji purple
1 super actinic.

I like the way it looks. I'd be curious to hear what you think

Tagging along. I have aluminarc reflector over my tank as well, and have been suspecting that it might be causing some problems for me as well. what were the dimensions of your luminmax reflector?
