  1. leaving my rodi on over night!!!!!

    siphoning water out for a water change and didnt pay attention to the water level and drained to much water out. (siphon drained to the driveway)

    adding an anemone to my tank that was only 2 months old. it walked and got choped up in the vortech nuked my whole tank.

    taking out a full skimmer cup and then dropping it in the sump

    and countless other dumb things!!!!!

  2. i had 2 250w 15k radiums i didnt see the center brace. thats 500w of electricity. i now only use about 250w with the light dialed back a bit and it puts out more light then the other 2 metal halides did. also the heat coming off the bulb feels like my 70w hqi de bulb on my fuge.

     

    so by adding that light i removed

    chiller

    fans

    250w electricity

     

    i will see what the savings are when i get this months bill.

  3. yeah i dont like it either. but the whole reason for the new light was to save money. the pictures make it look bad. in person its really not hat bad. im gonna install another royal blue led strip in the front.

  4. okay picked up the reflector friday modded my plasma light sat morning. this is not the final product i just wanted to make sure it worked and everything is functional.

    i must say this reflector is a huge difference this is the light at 50% power. i also added a coralsky royal blue led strip i did how ever sun burnt my corals for a bout 8 hours. i had to go out and purchase a a piece of glass that is 97% uv blocking. my corals are just now opening back up. lesson learned

  5. new update got my plasma light in i have a new issue that is gonna force me to buy a rimless 120g tank. you can see buy the pictures

    this is at 100%
