I am in Gold Hill & I did reg. for that forum the other day. So far so good there.

In my short experience I have noticed either my tank is looking really really good & on it's way to success, or starting to look bad & on it's way to failure. It's a roller coaster that keeps me wondering when the next turn, up hill climb or drastic fall will accure. To be honest this is what keeps me involved. If I knew what to expect I wouldn't be so interested. Who here peeps into their tank in the middle of the night with a flash light? What are you looking for? something new, something different from before? You are trying to find the unexpected & at times we do. So to me keeping a reef in the house is way out of the ordinary, & I would be let down by simple ordinary results. So with all that being said have I ever been completely frustrated? You bet! Have I ever sat in complete aw? Of course. I have no clue how I will feel about it tomorrow..........

I have a black percula that has paired with a true perc & they are now spawning. Is this a odd couple or common occurrence?

Thanks for the clowns Jay, they are happy as a clam.

What kind of power heads do you have. Are they controllable?

Down here they are $2.00 each & sometimes even more.

I would be interested in the true percs & the clams if you decided to part. What sps do you have in the tank???

Cool looking piece, availability?

You willing to sell that mystery wrasse & naso tang?

Cool looking tank & that clam aint bad either. Im in no need of another clam at this time I just wanted to say I like your tank. peace out

I am headed to So. Cali in a few days, that is south.

I might be interested in this, how many people will this include?

I am still interested in that mag 18, what do you want for it?

The Radium 250W IS a HQI bulb. It is designed to be driven by a HQI ballast. Just connect a mogul socket to the ballast and off you go.

The 400W Radium is designed to be driven at 360W and is therefore NOT a HQI bulb. Some do overdrive it with a HQI ballast because they like the look. If you do this you will shorten the life to around 6mo instead of the usual 12 mo.

I am using one of those current outer orbit fixtures & dont see a possible retrofit, but thanks for the info on the radiums being a HQI bulb. I wonder why they dont make them in the double ended bulb?

Clam is lookin happy

I am no expert here but I think I heard you say the coral is new to the tank, maybe your lighting is to intense for the coral. In my experience if I start corals lower in the tank & get them use to a more intense light they are less likely to bleach. Other than that it looks good to me.

I use 3- Phoenix 14k 250w $47.00 @ SOS lights or $70.00 @ LFS

I wish there was a Raduim 250 HQI I could try.

Oh looks like wegotjs will pick up, I did not see that. congrats wegotjs on a good deal.

I understand & respect the territory thing so if you are interested in shipping for $10.00 more I would really appreciate receiving the device. Thanks

Is this still available, & also which model is it?

Is this new or used?I would be interested in this, can you tell me what a probe would cost & also shipping to 97525.Thanks

Dang wish I seen this before I bought mine new.

Let me know if you are willing to part that mag 18. I really need one but can not afford new.

That was great andy, thanks for sharing it here.

WOW after looking at those my tank looks like poo.

Mine too! No matter how nice a tank is there always seems to be many more better. I still enjoy my tank all the same...
