Your very welcome, please keep me updated with the results and what you decide to feed them. Always nice to compare and contrast what works well for others.

I have them about 3 inches from the top of the tank running a vertex illumina 200 light and feeding heavy with acan plus, ora frozen food and dried and frozen cyclopes and they have exploded.
Good to hear your laving good long term results with LED's so far Wes, where are you picking up the ORA frozen food if you don't mind me asking?

You found Nutramar? Lucky! I haven't seen it in ages.

Jeez Levi, now I'm all excited to get my sump hooked up to my nano for I can get that over-sized skimmer hooked up and I can feed my Zoas.

Thanks Wes! Have yet to see it in Calgary, anyone out there know of a location? Don't think it would be very cost effective to ship in down here unfortunately.

Smaller tanks perform better when it comes to target feeding, much easier to saturate the water with proteins & AA and in turn create a wicked feeding response. Your over due for a nano update Mindy!
