    SPS Growth

    The fixture is about 6-7 inches above the top of tank, and then my rock work is about 1/2 way up. I would guess around 15 -17 inches. That particular coral is just off to the right of center of the halide. The bulbs are 14k ushio. I need the change then this month though. Here is my red milli...

    SPS Growth

    Yes it is a pink birds nest. When it came in to Kev's store I snagged it quick. I have been pleasantly surprised at how fast it is growing. My tank is in my treatment room, and this birdnest is a client favorite.

    sps lighting

    The bulletproof tank is definately beautiful. If you do look at the tank it is mostly softies and lps. Not a tank full of high end brightly colored sps colonies. Many people who run MH also run other bulbs to accent the color spectrum such as VHO and PC's. Many are now switching over to t5 for...

    sps lighting

    In very shallow tanks I imagine people can get away with VHO's or T5's but what do the intensity levels of the colors end up like as well as the size of the colonies. I think a huge problem in this hobby is that someone goes into a lfs or sees a high end tank at someones house and naturally...

    sps lighting

    You don't need halides but it sure does make a difference. I went from 4 96 watt pcs to 2 250 DE on a 72 bowfront and the corals and clams that I could have thrive and not just survive is totally different. Its about horse power, and a 96 or 110 watt can not have the same impact as a 250 or 400...

    Bryopsis control question

    I also struggled with briopsis for over 1.5 years trying everything under the sun that everyone under the sun suggested. It ended up growing up into all my sps and lps which were rather large colonies and I lost everything but a couple of frags. Once I was finally able to get rid of it I pretty...
