    Let's See Some Zoos!

    Lunar Eclipses Flaming Oranges (they didn't have a name, so I call them this...) These kind of have a white mouth. I'd put up my organisms too but I haven't gotten a photo of them yet.

    Let's See Some Zoos!

    Hey Finn - These are my 'lunars' - sorry they're not in great focus, just couldn't make it work despite many attempts. The top one has a tiny baby that isn't open in the photo, and there are few below the sexy shrimp.

    I'd be jealous if I wasn't spending a month in Australia... ;)

    When a Rhizo meets an anglerfish.

    Yeah, I doubt the angler was alive when the Rhizo got a hold of it. Anglers are certainly not the sharpest tool in the shed and WILL eat anything they can catch, even if it doesn't fit all the way down into the stomach - which usually ends up in their own death. I've had a scoly eat a dead angler.

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    Oooooooooooookay, how about we just cool down and wait until I put on the MHs and see what happens. :)

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    The skimmer wasn't pulling out anything anyways (it's a crap skimmer, I'll be honest). But then, there are no nitrates or phosphates anyways, even without the skimmer, so I don't see how one could be much help.

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    Tis an interesting discussion, that is for sure. I was going to say, well, what about the SPS on the ground that are still too light? But then you've also said that the ones on the ground were getting too much light as well. However, though the T5s had higher LUX values in comparison to the...

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    The MH is a 150 watt, it was only 2 or 3 days old yesterday, so yeah, probably needs some burn-in time yet.

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    I never actually tested, just kept adding until the bryopsis went away. I don't have a Mag test, unfortunately, but the same thing's been on my mind since I heard of someone frying their corals by adding too much TechM within a couple of days.

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    This was the new Phoenix 14k MH on my other tank: 30,000 right above water 13,800 2" below surface 7,500 middle of tank Now I realize that the 14k is a more blue bulb and LUX only reads the visible spectrum. I have 2 blues on my T5s as well, so I'm not sure what this is telling me other than...

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    Measured in LUX: Bottom of tank 6,400. Middle of tank 11,400. 2" below water surface 18,500.

    Not Enough Light or Food?

    I got a light meter today! I'm having issues finding what a T5 set-up *should* output as far as LUX is concerned, but I get anywhere between 31,000-38,000 depending on what bulb I hold the sensor under. The sensor was held just above the water (within inches of the bulbs), I'm pretty sure it's...
