    t5 lights/55 gallon

    Yes, each pair are rated for 22lbs. A pair will easily support an 8 bulb fixture.

    t5 lights/55 gallon

    Sunlifts are $20/pr at DIYReef..... As for bulb mix, try 50/50 mix of Aquablue Specials, and Blue + from ATI.

    ORA names and Species Identification

    Hey Charlie, Pearlberry = PRETTY CORAL! LOL!!!! ;) I chopped the tops off mine in order to try and simulate vertical growth, this thing is just encrusting everything it touches, but no real vertical yet.

    designing pro equipment, what do you want???

    See, now THAT'S WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT! A competitor has been building hype for a skimmer since OCTOBER and it has not been released yet. :mad:

    designing pro equipment, what do you want???

    I look forward to seeing what you can put together. Sometimes I think skimmers are designed by folks that can't keep a decent tank, and other skimmers are out of this world.

    designing pro equipment, what do you want???

    I guess the biggest thing for me right now is that if you announce a product, and say it will be available on X, then make sure it is! There is one vendor that lost me as a customer due to what seems like a nonstop push back in date of release. Also, fit and finish is GREAT, but FUNCTION is...

    Where to buy Eheim Pinwheels?

    Anyone know where I can buy one or 2 Eheim Pinwheel pumps that are used on skimmers? I have been doing a little searching and can't seem to find them from any of the usual sources. Thanks!

    PC vs T5HO

    No, I don't think you will. My 6 overdriven T5's need a fan because I am pushing them a little harder then normal. Your 8 HO should be just fine, if you do need/want to cool the bulbs, make sure to cool the end with all the labels on them. (Make sure to install the lights so all the tags are...

    PC vs T5HO

    Yes, there is MH, the OLD way of keeping a reef tank. Yes, they do work. However, they give more HEAT, and fewer color choices then T5. In addition to that, MOST who run halides also run "supplemental" actinic light, via either T5, VHO, or PC. If you want to run Halides, great, but that is...

    Sicce 2500 on different bodies?

    Maybe I can get all 3? ROTFLMAO! In all seriousness I wonder if a skimmer shoot out would work, kinda like you are doing, but with only one skimmer on the system at a time, and with measured food inputs for each trial period.

    Sicce 2500 on different bodies?

    Funny you mention Beckett skimmers, that is what I am looking to replace. I have a MR-2 that I modded into a recirculation model, and feed it from my overflow. I am only using one of the Beckett injectors, the other opening is being used for water input. Anyway, I have added some LPS to my...
