    JIve's Custom 75g Build

    I was going to stagger them by one hour but I'll try two. I know that will help my heat. I keep my tank at 77 degrees and when both lights are on the heat can get up there quick. I have a fan that switches on at 79 degrees to to stabilize the temp. With the two hour stagger i'll probably...

    JIve's Custom 75g Build

    Since I set my tank up I was manually turning my lights on and off even though I had an ACJR that could do it. In the beginning of Feb I was traveling a lot for work so I was forced to program it, which was actually easier than I though it would be. Here's my schedule I put the lights on if...

    Thanks! My MH bulbs are actually Coral Vue Reeflux 20K's (http://www.coralvue.com/reeflux.html). Yes, I'm using my 4 T5HO's actinics with the 20K's. The blue from the T5's is very similar the color that the 20K's throw off, just not as intense obviously. I'm actually replacing the T5's...

    More updated photos: These are my new paired black clowns. You can also see my frag rack I built to accommodate all the frags I got at the PSAS frag swap. The shot glass is for a red mushroom that came off the colony today, I'm trying to get him on a plug so I can trade/sell him. <img...

    Is it ok to use this live rock

    I have a large chunk of LR that I put into a 6 gallon Kent Salt bucket about 6 months ago with salt water. The bucket has just been sitting in my garage, no circulation or heater. The rock had hair algae on it and I couldn't use it on my new tank. Well I just looked in the bucket and there...

    Just upgraded my lights to Reeflux 20K's. I'll be replacing my actinics soon to 4 Geismann 420nm. I gave my two maroon clows to ARSA to see if their fins can heal. In the mean time I have two paired black clown in their place. I'll post pics in a few days. Oh I also got a bunch of cool...

    Yeah I want a really blue look so the 20k's are for me. How would your bulbs be old, wasn't your light new?

    They're the T5's that came with the outer orbit (T5HO Actinic 420nm & 460nm lamps). How do you like the 14k's you just got? I'm thinking of getting 20k's. Thanks, it took a long time to get all the pieces that I wanted. Lost of hiding places and a few arches.

    Its a current outer orbit model 1077 (http://current-usa.com/outerorbithqit5ho.html) I didn't want to hang it from my ceiling so I took some electrical conduit and bent it with a bender and attached the light with the hanging kit it came with. Then painted it black. Discussed in this thread...
