jason7504 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 that would look nice with almost all sps..gotta love sps dominated solanas but i love mixed reefs too, the best of both worlds imo you could always do sps on the rocks and keep some lps or softies in the sand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finch6013 Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 well not all the rock space will have enough light for sps or flow so I figure in those areas I might do some rics and shrooms. Gotta have a torch and frog spawn. I love torches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason7504 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 well with a 250w you could put sps anywhere on the rocks or even in the sand lol yeah i love torches and Frogspawns too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finch6013 Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 pheonix 14k showed up today and for some reason it doesn't work. I cant see any damage but no go. Also my Azoo quad fan showed up today. Got it mounted and its doing a great job of keeping the temp stable with the lights on. And its not very cool at my place. I think its a little on the loud side but not any worse then the other equipment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finch6013 Posted September 13, 2009 Author Share Posted September 13, 2009 I added the first of many to come sps to the tank today. Picked this one up from upscales. I really like the soft blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason7504 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 hmm thats weird my phoenix is just fine and is perfect.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finch6013 Posted September 14, 2009 Author Share Posted September 14, 2009 I dono what was wrong with it. No visible damage, just no fire. The balast didn't even try to fire it like maybe there wasn't connection from one end to the other? Dono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilmca Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I run 250w Phoenix bulbs in PFO pendants and i have to insert the bulb into the pendant just right or it won't fire. Maybe that's the problem, I could test it for you to make sure it doesn't work. I also have a used Phoenix bulb that you could try and see if you like the coloration if the bulb you have doesn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finch6013 Posted September 14, 2009 Author Share Posted September 14, 2009 I tried changing positions and getting it to seat better but still no go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
