True enough. Thanks again Scubasteve. But I'm being a smartass. I should start using smileys but too lazy. Would take the ignorance out of my texts. They're all taken the wrong way.

I think we should also thank the creator of this thread (sorry don't know the technical term :P). Without his initiative, this thread wouldn't even be in existence! Hats off to Douglas!

My experience with LEDs:

+1 on LEDs being perfectly adequate for SPS. I just wish I could figure out how Dez manages to get his iPhone to take such good pictures of his, as my iPhone has a grand mal seizure every time it looks at my tank. The sensor practically explodes when it looks at the LEDs of my radions.

If I can sort that out, I'll have a whole bucket of photos for you (photo-bucket, get it? )

I just can't pull the trigger on LEDs I think I'm going to try one more year of mh power consumption with a bigger light fixture/ more wattage on 180 but build a smaller fixture for my 50... Baby steps and see how I like it before I attempt the bigger fixture.
