    No PE on SPS corals

    Kevin; I got your email.. sorry for the delay in replying. I was out of town on Spring Break in Sunny San Diego. A bulb in a reflector behaves slighlty differently that a single point source, especially since we are not far away from the reflector to treat the whole thing as a point source...

    Midcolumbia Saltwater Aquarium Club working on another Conference for 2007.

    I would like to thank the Mid Columbia club for hosting a wonderful conference. I have to say you were one of the best hosts I have had in my travels all over the country. The conference was very well organized and ran without a hitch (I am sure there were some, but they were well hidden :-))...

    MH Nipple Orientation

    If someone has a lamp that is showing such drastic color change due to nipple orientation, I will be happy to test it and verify the color and spectrum change. I personally have not come across large color changes in lamps due to orientation issues. Yes, there is difference in PPFD readings due...

    Please set me straight (light studies)....

    One of the reasons for comparing the 400W DE with SE using LA3 was primarily to show that similar results could be achieved by the SE lamps. As for cost.. those 400W DE systems + bulbs will run you a lot more than the Lumenarc + bulb. Space is ofcourse a constraint that must be considered. I...

    Please set me straight (light studies)....

    Ah.. yet another case of justifying your purchase :D As someone already pointed out in this thread, you can grow corals with a lot of the available combinations. You first need to establish what is it you want, and at what cost. ? Everyone has a different value system they apply to choose...

    Pics of the Penn State tank

    Here are the specs on the tank from a few years ago. http://www.advancedaquarist.com/issues/oct2002/aquarium.htm The major changes made since then was the addition of 6 eductors to the 3 closed loops dirven by the Iwaki 70s. Each of the pumps handles 2 eductors (the penductor versions) and the...
