Got the light rack up today!! Looks like the glass needs cleaning









Just for fun I put a radium bulb in there. I picked up a couple used ones at the frag swap last fall. I'm really liking the color, they make my ushios look incredibly yellow


Yeah safety! Matt is a bit nervous about the whole light rack thing. I was hoping for something a bit less unsightly but it'll do for now.

Looks like its coming along very nice Christy. I always liked my Radiums. On my 225g, I ran 3 400,s and people coming over said it use to look like an exotic reef down south somewhere.

Looking good!

Probably in here but... why does the light bracket have the 4 legs?

I'm going to attach VHO's to the legs. The VHO lighting is still on my 90 gallon tank.
