Out with the clunker Coralife in with more radions!
I think I'm in love .





The hanging situation still needs some work as they are sitting all funky at the moment. Either we will build a frame for the 6 or get additional mounting kits for the 3 we ghetto hung.

Everything is so bright and shiny now !






New wicked paly:

How has the change affected your tank temp?

I need to get over and check this out! It's one thing to see one over coral (I still haven't) but yours is also a large tank and you're doing 2 rows which i most certainly would need to.

Your pics look better in my eyes!

Woah, that's sweet!!!!!!!!!!
Levi do you have any tips for saving zoas/paly's? I'm getting to my wit's end with them melting for no apparent reason. I lost my Jason Fox Blood Shot's and now my Space Monsters are melting away I don't have spiders, nudi's or pox or anything I can tell that's bothering them. I do have asterina stars but they never go anywhere near my zoa's/paly's. I did notice something a couple weeks ago, there was something strange looking on the inside stalk of my space monsters(notice the dark lines inside the far left play, this is also the one that melted on me a couple days ago) They also look skinny and so do a couple other of my paly frags.

Sweet tank! I'm assuming your loving the Radions? How did you acclimate the tank to the LED's?

I've just started the switch, and I can tell everyone these Radions are really underrated IMO. Right now I have one side by side with a high end 400W 20k radium, and at 100% the Radion is brighter! I'm starting at 33% as to not bleach anything.
