looking to go more with the 14k right now. want to see how the corals react to it.

my corals definitely colored up after i switched from the xm10k to the hamiliton 14k. now i'm going to try the xm 15k and see what it does.

My Ham. 14ks have been adding tons of color to my corals. However I am switching from 4x 96 watt pc to 2x 250 watt Mh. Monti has went from brown and pink to green and purple edge. the other from biege now turning bright green. A brown acro is turning flour. green. Another from brown with green poylops to purple with green poloyps. Its pretty cool. I got my new video card today and installed it. Something else is wrong. I sent it off to the computer repair. I dont have the stuff to upload from my camera on this computer. Will post pics as soon as I can. I am really digging the hamilton 14k. Steve

so many people are worried about par but they dont consider all the other things. If they are soo worried they can lower there lights 2-3 inches and get similar results.

brad, did you glue that table to the back wall?

 

[bradreef]

yes super glue gel.

 

[bc_slc]

wow, what if you ever want to move the rock?

 

[bradreef]

I will be moving in a month. no problem just break it off. It is on the overflow. I will do it again though. The super glue isn't that tough.
