Nerdy aquarium chat? I'm there. Hopefully some nerdy car chat will be sprinkled in as well.

Yikes! I wasn't saying there wernt and young people on the site, I just got this mental image of an 11 year old throwing down $300 for a new skimmer and was curious.

I wish I had the cash at age 11 to be in to this hobby (scratch)

Might be easier to break it up into separate panels. I'm not even sure the make them that big. Are you going to have a canopy or covering over the tank? If your looking for 400watt mh you can always add extra panels of white LEDs with optics that can be programmed to come on for a couple hours a day and make a "high noon". I'm hoping other will chime in too though.

best scene involving a daewoo ever

lol, I just edited more post after i read your comment. Although that is always a good excuse to get the iphone 5...... Or just wait 3 weeks till the 5s comes out

I just put a couple on, i am not a good camera guy

Things are going well in the tank, I'm happy with my new open rock work and i have added about 8 or 9 frags (including 2 different really nice deep water acros) that ive been growing in the frag tank to the display tank to fill in. Just ordered a 12 UV led kit tonight. Looking forward to seeing how this will effect the lighting. Anyone else running UV?

Nice! those polyps are going crazy on #3

nice, defiantly a sportier look. What springs are they, H and R?

This I will trade you 4 goats and my best sister for yours reef aquarium

I'm glad others are running a similiar schedule with the blues on 11-13. I wasn't sure if the led blues were more powerfully than my previous t5 actinics. Didn't want to fry anything.

Im hoping to check it out at the meeting. I've got a Reefkeeper and I'm debating on weather or not to run my lights with it.

Are you running more than one acl module?

Just curious what schedules other led tanks are running there lights at. 7:30 am to 9:00 PM 1/2 of the Royal Blues 12:30PM to 8:30PM All lights are on and running

That's so cool, I'll bet that has a powerful odor to it.

Are you changing anything when you re wire? Or just cleaning it up?

Sold thank!

I'm joking

Hold on, when did oiab start using 20 gallon tanks?

its not attached to the rock, i disloged it and set it on its side for now so i could photo it. The T5's should be fine for this, these are really hearty and great growers.

Bonus, if you look on the right side there is some blue green cyphastrea growing into a small spot that can be snapped off and grown out.

i just put in a question to BRS for the official answer, curious to see what they say.

I've read about this happening before and I'm wondering where the organics come from on the dry rock?

Hmmm, sounds like a challenge. Grow out purple monster comp?
