Wow just under 900 watts of lighting, the tank looks awesome.
Your lighting pretty much takes up 1 whole circuit.

4 X 250 watt Lumenmax3 pendants driven by Blue Wave ballasts with Pheonix 14 K - (too bad the bulbs have been discontinued)
1 x Radion LED fixture (replaced a Hamilton pendant last Dec on the RH front corner)
12 X T5 54 Watt across the back.


Fairly recent FTS

Nice tank snappy! That's a lot of light but a lot of coral too

That's very disappointing to hear. I was about to make the jump to Halides as I'm not completely happy with T5's. I guess T5's are the best option in Reef lighting for now unless there is another similar Halide lamp.

Does anyone know of a lamp comparable to the Phoenix 14k?

Radiums are nice but more pricey about 90 a bulb

Radium 20K beat Phoenix 14K is coloration but not in growth.

Yes they did. They stopped production 100% and said it will never be made again.

It may take a while for the stock levels to deplete but once it does, that's it.

LOL. I had to go check! Thankfully no. I think the wall paint I used is UV protected.
