haha ya, pretty much..

I have a Deathscythe in 1/144 HG and have always wanted a 1/100. I'll start with this to see how it goes. I doubt I will collect any PGs as I find them too big as well. I don't have the space for it at all. Or maybe just one PG down the road.. (that Astray Red Frame looks so bad ass). Mostly I'm interested in the MG of this modern age. All of mine are HG 1:144 with just a couple of HG 1:100. What they've done with the MG these days is just insane! And even the Real Grades look really good and still affordable. I'll probably end up with a few Real Grades as well before the year is out.

Acros? Is that a Gundam? Does it come in a MG ??

Also, I'm not sure where to put the build thread for my Gundams. Maybe convert my tank build thread into my Gundam build thread.

Well, I finally had some time to take some more pictures, I am slowly learning... there's still a lot of noise in the pictures. My hands can't hold them camera still when I am taking over head shots, the macro lens is too sensitive and tripods don't work when you need them to

Update -Still awaiting the new ATI lights, hopefully the corals will like it a lot better than the Radion, some corals aren't impressed at all...

My very special little guy, multicolored angel He's the reason why some of my polyps are retracted when the lights are on. Very neat watching him peck around and casually swim about:

I gotta visit your house sometime with my sps clipper Stanley Those are some crazy stuffs you got there

Which ATI did you order? I ordered my dimmable one (couldn't resist lol) last week

[gqlmao]

When I have some frags I will definitely let you know hopefully in a couple of months. I have some wild growers, they grow like weed. The expensive stuff takes forever to grow... I got the 8 bulb dimmable, concept gave me a deal I couldn't resist The fixture will sit flush with the tank, since the tank is 18 inches wide. I will have some light flood but it's something I can live.

8 bulbs?! That would be way too overkill for a 14" high tank isinit? I got myself the 6 bulb since I thought 8 bulbs would be too much for my acans and some other LPS that I might keep down the road.

It will be fine, the dimmable fixtures will be helpful in that respect. I run my radion at almost 90 percent right now, the pieces near the top aren't really showing any signs of bleaching, all about the properly acclimating the corals. I have no LPS in the tank so I am not too worried about excessive lighting.

Do you know rehypes tank? it was a 24x24x9 high, it was running 6 bulbs + 2 led strips.
